In reply to:
really, I don't even know what a limey is...
Limey, of course, is a derogatory term for Britons, mostly the English.
I haven't verified this, but I was always told that the term comes from British sailors who suffered from scurvy (vitamin C deficiency). To counter this, trade ships would carry massive amounts of citrus fruits, including limes, on board their vessels. Thus, they came to be called "limeys." Why it is derogatory is beyond me.

Huh... I wasn't under the impression that it was derogatory. But I could easily be quite wrong.

3 Seconds? You give me more credit then I deserve. Since I ordered the HK I have been going up and down on if I should have. The 3805 is a great receiver but there was something about the HK that left me wanting more. Time will tell I guess.

well, you know, if you aren't happy with the 630 I would be happt to give it a good home untill you find someone to buy it
or, perhaps you'd take my AVR 130 and my firstborn son for it? Eh -- sounds like a good deal, RIIIIIIIGHT?
oh, and I just checked on the remote -- it's "out for delivery" I can feel my trigger finger itching...
