<DIV>Hi <FONT size=4>Karl, all</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>That sounds brilliant ! Yay ! </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>I must get in contact with the person who made the artwork.
Could be that it was on f_minor before but anyways once I’ll have it I will post
it. Even if the nice folks at Google will accept the idea they will most likely
come up with their own artwork, but we shall see.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>Just last weekend there was a Google Doodle up for Johann
Gottfried Galle. Now most of you will shrug and hit that doodle just to find out
that he was one of the discoverers of the planet Neptune. Now your natural
couriosity has been satifsfied, you know something more, even if it would only
be for the next pub quiz. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>And this is where we can get ‘em. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>I do believe that such a doodle on GG’s birthday could raise
the awareness for his lasting legacy. Granted, not every Google user will rush
out to the next record store or hop over to iTunes but if his audiance ranges
from pianists and classical music afficionados to houswives in Texas, aging
hippies and disillusioned rock listeners then why not ? Good music will find
you, eventually.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>I would also bet that even within classical music (a small
niche these days) there are people who never heard of GG before.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>(It would be nice to have a car radio similar to the one on
that GG CD-ROM from years ago below the doodle, but that is probably just
whishful thinking.)</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>Just recently the great synth pioneer Bob Moog was honored
with a Google Doodle. You might remember hitting Google and seeing the
virtual replica of something that vaguely looked like a MiniMoog some 2
weeks back. Ah, my heart leapt with joy !!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>Goggle sometimes has these doodles to honor paniters,
artists, tech nerds or scientists like Alan Turing or does something special
on days like Canada Day or Switzerland’s 1st of August National Celebration
Day for the respective local sites. Examples can be found here:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>Now this is not my idea but some of us are wondering if it
is possible to get GG as a GoogleDoodle on Sept 26th worldwide. Not just
Canada but the rest of the planet as well. Trouble is that it is rather
difficult to get in contact with Fortress Google. I do know that
drawings/sketches for a doodle exist and that the GGF is basically in
agreement and has given the green light. But alas, they can’t get into
Fortress Google either as I understand.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>But if you and I want this to happen with GG I reckon one
should start shifting gears now.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>Now what do y’all reckon about having a GG Google Doodle,
possibly worldwide on his 80th birthday ? What could or must be done to get
this going ? And does anybody know the way into <STRIKE>Mordor</STRIKE>
Google, possibly via the back door ?</FONT></DIV>
