The ravage of cancer

:cry:

Without him, we wouldn't be here in this place right now.

Perhaps, nothing we know would be.

God that is a total bastard - had the fortune to meet Bob over a year ago when he done a lecture in Edinburgh with Jean-Jacques Perrey and was nothing short of a gentleman.

Sad news.

RIP Mr Moog (pronounched as in VOGUE I read today)
Slugs! HE created slugs! They can't hear. They can't speak. They can't operate machinery. Are we not in the hands of a lunatic?
