    Been away from home (HERE!!!) for a while and so am buzzing to see that the AudioSEX train keeps on gathering pace with absolutely no sign of ever slowing.

    It seems to me that each and every one of the innovations above comes from a great deal of thought and can do nothing but improve our communal experience, so kudos, as ever, to SAiNT, Cat and the rest of our oh so generous team who dedicate time and energies providing what is beyond any shadow of a doubt the worlds best audio community.

    Regards my absence? All work related. Firstly I was working too damn hard for my own good, taking on more than I should have and being a people pleaser. Working a shift pattern through the week then going on 24hour call out for a week every 3rd week This in turn led to my old back injury, (20 years working as a carpenter is not conducive to keeping your spine and back muscles tickerty boo!) flaring up and instead of heading the warnings of discomfort and pain I continued as normal. Fitting a kitchen last Thursday, barely able to stand straight, my back finally said "Fuck this, I`m outta here!" and left me in a crumpled mess on the floor. I now await the results of a blood test and scan to see just what damage I`ve done. :guru:

    Thank you for the concern and kind words Rolma.:hug: My sincerest hope is that after all the poking, prodding and scanning I still have a choice as to whether or not I return. I have become very close friends with a chap called agony and he seems to be one of those who just doesn`t know when it`s time to leave! :bash:

    @pilz971 I know that pain bro (and that stupidity). At age 14 I injured my back and stupidly waited three months before I went to a doctor and was diagnosed with fractures in two vertebrae and spondylolisthesis. First doctor prescribed a brace that didn't extend far enough to stabilize the worse of the two fractures (let's hear it for the noble medical profession). Second brace was fine but I was an idiot and continued to lift weights and run. 11 months later I was healed with only intermittent pain. I played football and lacrosse through high school which of in hindsight was stupid but how could I have known that playing offensive tackle could exacerbate existing spinal conditions? :rofl:

    12 years later I wake up with back pain every morning that ranges from annoying to debilitating. People say shit tends to fall apart after 30. can't wait. :suicide: In recent months I've been trying yoga and it really helps. I still box and lift weights, which isn't ideal for a tender spine, but the yoga really improves the pain in the mornings. Stretches out muscles that pull on your skeleton unevenly and really strengthens your core up. When you're in good enough shape to do some mild exercise it couldn't hurt to give it a shot.

    Thanks for the suggestion Cav Emp, hadn`t thought of Yoga. I was told 20 years ago that the problem was muscular and that after a few weeks of exercise it`d all be fine and fixed. Since then, every 3 to 6 months I get a spasm which has took me off my feet on more than one occasion. I then suffer for anything from 3 days to 3 weeks but have always just soldiered on in order to put food on the plates and give a holiday or two to my beautiful wife and kids. Seems I`ve finally met a REAL Doctor now who is taking me seriously and wants to do all he can to get the problem found and sorted. Fortunately I work for a staunch company who would`nt just cast me aside but would find a technical job off the tools for me.
    Love AudioZ and the beautiful community herein. You guys are quite simply the BEST! :hug:

    So this is how strange & buggy AudioZ looks on my Browser!
    If i want to reply to a PM things go really to hell.
    A complete mess, no way to push the "send" button as it gets overlaid
    by that "POSITIVE SSL" button. All i can do is to zoom out the page a lot.
    If i want to view a member's profile the page jumps always to the top,
    making it impossible to scroll down. Very buggy!

    I'm starting to think that this is the best formatted message board I've ever been in. The GUI and interface work just awesome.

    Keep up the good work! :wink:
