Education is the key
We have all been there, growing up, wanting to know as much as possible, for many computers weren't around, and so few books to learn from, and all we wanted were facts, maybe a few opinions....many kids did and didnot learn from their parents...where could you go?.....
Some were satisfied with what they have and how they use it, others wanted more, others wanted to know better techniques...
it's not the wave, but the motion of the ocean, as many have quoted........but experience has taught a lesson...some are bad at it, some are good, others are better, and some know what they are doing while others don't....as long as your matched to someone in any given relationship, and your content with all aspects of the whole package, not just the sexual part of it, then that's all that matters to any individual....
It should be our duty to help, educate, and advise the younger generation with questions and facts, rather than have them search for false information, and if you think their not looking for this information, guess again, I don't know anyone who wasn't once they hit puberty...all part of growing up......kids don't have to use a home computer in front of their parents, they can get it from a friends computer, the library, Dad's playboys hidden in the attic....if they want it, they will find it....we did!.....remember the first time you got on a computer?...what did you search for?...it sure as hell wasn't Sesame Street!!!

Size???
Im definately not a prude, anyone who knows me knows im really a whore!! but This is not the right place to discuss the size of ones organ, Robert has set up a great thing here for us ,im not going to do anything to offend anyone,especially some kid or his parents who might come across this,on the other hand ,I like such discussions,I just think there are better venues,private e mail or such,im on Bearforest, which is a fun site ,lets be very careful what we say to who.

I agree with norgeway, you never know when a youngone is going to look in on us. Keep it rated G. Don
The horse has already left the barn
The "young'uns" these days have seen everything on their computer already.

Size of Organs . . .
I'll agree with those who say size isn't everything; I prefer the sound of the Hammond B3 over much larger pipe organs, though of course some may beg to differ.

Well since we're on the subject
I might as well show you a picture of the one I practice on and play where I work.

and really, why is this thread supposed to be shocking?
Since I rather thought I was a right winger (at least according to some folks definition) and I should be clutching the bible right now and saying how terrible this discussion is...
yawn.
I think it's kind of fun actually, and rather tame.
But then again I'm a serious agnostic and very obscene, so

Joe,
what kind of organ is that? it's quite impressive,
though I prefer a 2 manual stop tab Rodgers digital organ similar to the one pictured below

Re: Organ
xraytech, it is a Moller Pipe Organ, Opus No. 9207. It was installed in 1958 and was reworked and added to in 1991. It has a 10hp turbine compressor, 3,952 pipes, and full length '32 Contra Bombarde in the Pedal. Combine that with 3 ranks of Festival Trumpet and whole building roars and shakes. The 4th manual solo's the FT, followed by Swell, Great, and Choir divisions. It's one of those kinds of instruments that "gives itself up" easily.

Big, fancy (or expensive) or otherwose impressive organs don't impress ME.
I am impressed by a man who knows how to work one (even a small and humble one) and make sweet, sweet, music.

Ah, yes Peter Conte and the great Wannamaker! Nothing else sounds like it, a complete tonal palate!
I've played them in all sizes and conditions, and can appreciate the variety, matter of fact one of the nicest ones I've played is a two manual pipe/digital combination done by Baldwin before they sold out.

Forget all but HAMMOND!
There is nothing like a Hammond, and I dont mean one of those new pieces of junk,I mean an old made in Chicago,Tonewheel organ with a real Leslie speaker with tubes,there has never been any equal,pipe organs are ok, but to me are dead and lifeless,give me a good old Pentecostal Church of God organ anyday.
