Wow, thanks Jon!
What I really appreciated was the chance to read that again!

I had some of the facts backwards and sideways, because I don't
own _The Real Frank Zappa Book_, where Frank reproduced that
article verbatim. I read the whole book in the library one
(whole) day - couldn't tear myself away.

It still made me laugh out loud when I read:

[Zappa, on Varese]
> I thought it was great that somebody had finally made
> a record of a mad scientist.

In fact, I'm laughing out loud again now.

Boy, I really miss Frank being around.
