  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    Least Favorite Illusione?

    I like the ~MJ12~––though with its big ring gauge, it's kind of an exception for me (along with, say, a PAM/PAN #9) in that I prefer skinnier sticks. Having said that, I'm still looking forward to trying the Epernay Le Monde, which, at 6.25" x 54, matches the ~MJ12~ in ring gauge...

    Why 70/70 and what does it mean?

    RH is derived by multiplying and dividing a set of coefficients, one of which already factors in temperature shifts, so a measurement of 65% rh is 65%, regardless of whether it's 50 degrees or 100 degrees.

    Opus X P ussy Cat

    Vegas B&M's?

    Yeah. I'm something of a regular there (though I haven't been in the store for a while), and Paul tends to keep the locals who frequent the shop in mind when parceling out the boxes and the sticks (like the Black and Red Tubos) so everyone can get a fair share.
