I've met three other loopers in the north New Jersey area, who are not on 
the
list.  I'd put one in the b)haven't heard about it group and the other two 
in
the c)no time group.  Although I imagine that those two may be checking 
out our
community more soon.  We've become big fans of each other's music, and are
starting to develop something of a scene/community in our area.  One 
looper,
who came to my last show and also uses an older EDP, remarked that I used 
the
EDP much more comprehensively then he did.  He basically uses it just for
ambient loops.  He had all sorts of questions for what I was doing with 
certain
next loop, and substitute functions.  I told him that 90% of what I do is a
direct result of things that I've learned from members of this list.  His
interest in loopers delight certainly seemed to increase at that point.

Thanks everybody,
