I get a 403 when I click. Is there a mirror?

Yes, dammit. Except I'm a guy. And the "clean everything" doesn't come up as much.

In "1956 Martin Luther King Montgomery Story Comic. "

Nice find, here is an article about the same comic, and this is one about golden legacy, written by a friend of mine [quasi-self-link, i guess]. There are a couple of other stories on black comic history as well.

In "They all look the same to me!"

6/18, I once thought I could tell the difference, then I lived in Japan for two and a half years. Now I cant. But since the Japanese and Koreans originally came out from China, and the only real difference between Japanese and Koreans (as opposed to say, Cambodians and Thai) is in the diet, there is probably a pretty healthy cross-section that would be indistinguishable. Though I can usually tell the difference between an American and someone from a different continent. Though thats not as much of an achievment, I guess.

Nostrildamus: The link I put in the first post was for a vintage Telefunken. The guy wants $8K fido-3 was a tour bus

Also, the XLR-1/8" isnt that big a deal, just get an XLR-1/4" and put an adapter on it, thats exactly what I do with my recorder and its fine. Also, what nostrildamus said. Voice only internet radio recording doesnt need top of the line. Also, getting something made specifically for computers will probably have a better form factor, and will be made for use with a computer vs. a pro mic which will need a larger stand.

I dont get it.

In "Curious George: Microphones"

Telefunken U-47, pete, and I dont think you could get one of those for under $100. I second the Shure 58. Its a standard road mic, so its solid, durable and has good sound quality. I got mine for About $60-$70 new in Japan (actually it was a 57, which is pretty much the same thing, slightly different dynamics), so if you hunt around you can probably get a good deal. I have seen these mics take a LOT of abuse and still work fine after several years, so you might scope a cheaper used one on ebay. Any mic that costs more will probably be a condensor mic which are more sensitive, but more costly and fragile, and easy to overload. Generally they are made to have a permanent place in a well-tuned studio, and are probably overkill if you are just doing voice broadcasting over the internet.
