Re: [Avid-L2] OT - Quad Tape

It's all coming back, you know. Hang on to those quads, Steenbecks and
splicers. For the past few weeks I've noticed that there is a very nice
retractable grease pencil on my desk. Not sure why it's there but I
enjoy picking it up by mistake when I need to scribble a note. There;s
a Ready-Eddy in my desk too. Wonder if I should put it on Ebay... --J.B.
