I was avoiding the temptation to make that (gas) connection. but Xenon Codex
holds a similar place in my heart, it is the 1st HW cd I purchased. After
nearly 20 years of vinyl purchases, someone bought me a cd player and I broke
down and stepped up to the new digital technology...Xenon broke the player in.
