Buy my Reality Cables and help fulfill the budget for the student project ! DONE

arthurs · « **on:** 4 Mar 2009, 04:29 am »

As posted in this circle, Scott and his students need just about 16 more drivers to have what they need for this years projects. To that end, I have a 6' pair of Gregg Straley's Reality Speaker Cables in excellent condition that I will set a minimum price of $120 on, shipping included. once sold, I will donate the purchase price and match it dollar for dollar to Scott's fund for the kids project speakers. Feel free to buy them for more than $120 and slam dunk the budget needed for the project.

Come on, who needs a really good set of speaker cables and wants to be a hero and do a good thing to help out some young speaker builders? Make me a quick offer and let's get them on their way!

SOLD!!

You are a good man Hugh.

Scott, do you have a paypal address Hugh and I can send our $$ to you at or is check better?

Hugh · « **Reply #3 on:** 4 Mar 2009, 04:51 am »

$200 each.

Since YOU are a senior, may be you want to be more generous than Moi, unless I can get some of my $ back from SHM.

Art,

Please take care of this for me.

Thanks,

What is posted above most certainly qualifies as one of the coolest, most admirable things I have ever seen.

Very cool, Guys!

Nice form.

Art,
Send a check per the PM instructions. I do have a personal paypal, but not in our tax exempt name.
Gentlemen, thanks again for your help and interest. I am sold on the importance of having students do creative hands on science projects that are meaningful to them. I have taught a long time, and most of what passes for lab science is poorly understood by students and done in ways that don't appeal to their interest.
The West Texas Science Center sponsors student to get into the dirt in several dinosaur excavations, to be electrified by the speaker project, and we will add this spring a digital photo county wide insect collection. In each case, the student is not just repeating the instructions from some lab manual, but getting involved in a creative and real way to produce something scientifically challenging and useful.
Science is facinating.

Great job Hugh and Art!

Good to see that people are still giving in these tough economic times.

There are some really great people here at AC

... where even Giant and Cowboy fans can come together to support a project that builds young aficionados of our hobby

Way to go Gentlemen!

I haven't been online much at all for a while and I just caught this, has the budget been met? If not I'd like to help by offering up a brand new set of Silkworms in the way that Mr. Art S. did with his Reality cables and donate the funds. Please let me know if I can help.

Best regards,
John P.

John,
Thanks to everyone's generousity, we have everything that we need for this year. However, I"ll be sure to get you for next years projects. I appreciate your interest and your offer.

Hi Scott,

I'm sorry I missed this opportunity and would love to help, PLEASE keep me in mind for the next go-round. If you can shoot me a pm once it starts as chances are that I'm very likely to miss the thread.

Glad you all made the goal and hope everything goes great!!

Best,
John

Hugh · « **Reply #19 on:** 24 Mar 2009, 02:35 pm »

Scott & John,

If Scott can use the extra money for this year, let's do it.

I'm game if you guys are.
