why is it designed to look like a guitar pedal? it's a synth not a  
guitar petal.

I don't have any drum machines designed to look like a harpsichord...  
though I wish I did.

right but that is what gave the tabletop evolver its crappy interface.

BUT

If Dave did care about what it looked like would we even have an  
tabletop evolver?

If we did not have a tabletop evolver would there be a DSI today?

With out DSI would we be having this conversation?

With out this conversation would we even be here?

If we were not here does that mean we have been sucked into an  
invisible black hole?
