Hi ProgNerd,

I first saw your work on the `YES` site, and was impressed, so when I saw you had done a `TULL`, I had to view. I found it strange, as an Englishman, listening to a quintessential English band, watching images of America I presume! I'm intrigued as to your connections with Meiners Oaks, do `the ones that you know` live there. Hey, I respect you privacy man(?), and you can treat this as a rhetorical question, should you see this. Prog Rules ok.

Love and laughter to you and yours.

Thanks for the comment. Yeah, the music of Tull really resonates with me here in my hometown...What can I say, it's a beautiful match of music, words, and imagery.

Interestingly enough, a fair amount of Brits live here in Ojai. I know of one in particular who is a good friend who runs one of the local coffee shops.

Hi TPN,

Thanks for responding to my comment, after which I looked afresh at your `Tull` Vid, and it occurred to me that Meiners Oaks is a green oasis in what otherwise seems to be a desert. Also, many of the trees are similar to those we have in England, as are the cars, so all in all, it looks almost English, for an American town! Thanks again for your creative gifts
