Don't know about the wire but after a number, most people are completely fucked.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

I'm the same with anything technamologinacal. Give me a chisel and some wood and I'm all good. Add a wire and a number and I'm completely fucked.
I'm killer at laundry though.

Might have to get an amp request into you later this year Paul, have always digged the look of your builds. Right up my alley, both visually and tonally
