Hi engineear,
As I’m not able to read, write or speak Mayan, so I can’t tell you anything in that regard. But this cycle of earths magnetic core, predicted to switch polarity, as it has in the past. That would change earths gravitational pull, plus the predicted allignment of the planets, again gravity will be affected, and we may all fly off the deepest end ever.

I love my life with all it’s wonders and our great potential as human beings. Let’s face it, someone, or other worldly beings, came to earth long ago, way before the Lord Jesus Christ, and gave man the brain and seeds of knowledge which has, over the centuries helped us develop into the intelligent beings we are today.

Spacemen, or God’s, we have been visited and our humanity changed for the better in many ways, but also the evil and bad have had a major play in how me make choices and decisions which affect our lives and many around us, friends family, loved ones.

When December 2012 Is here, in only a few short months, I’m sure the cathedrals, churches, mosques, synagogues, tabernacles and holy shrines will be jammed, fully packed with folks, who want to pray for the ticket away, to ‘Heaven’. I’m looking forward to the day… Win or lose?
I’ve really enjoyed my life, even with its hardships and past illness. I am a happy being-being here. Thankfull too, I was such a good swimmer the night/day of my conception.

Ah, have yourselves a wonderfull day. Thanks for taking the time too…

“I, will fly away!!”

If they didn’t announce this past January NAMM, it will likely be next year if that.  I believe based on my experience (I have owned all generations of Motif except the first) they run about 3 years or so.  As far as to wait?  Personal.  I could understand if it were already announced, but that is not the case.  Besides, Korg announced the Kronos, and it took them WAY longer to release than thought.  I work in the AV industry, and with Yamaha on that side, and this is typically the norm in the electronics business.

Either way, I will likely upgrade whenever they do release since that is my typical style.  :)

The Motif XF is still outselling the Kronos 2 to 1. Information that the
Kronos is the top seller is not true.

Hi Dave,
Sir, & not to mention, very much respectfully, Motif XF has two-to-one astounding (outstanding) helpers here, teachers on the Forum, being ofcourse Phil and as well You, Dave.

Thank you very much… The work you do for us is astonishingly unselfish. I hope sometimes profitable too, on the instructional videos & voice bank front!! Well done!!

take good care

PS, I heard talk, but seriously: “what ‘are’ a Kronos??” smile

Chas

Hey Chas,

Kronos was a mythical god. I saw it on the the History Channel. Never was much for myths.

Hope you are well.

Stone

Hi stone,
Well, I am… Thanks, and for thee explanation too!!

Funny thing is, History Channel is one of my fav. to watch.
It brings me much pleasure. Something like this Forum, but only with commercials, smile.

Yeah, mythology, historic legends and marvels of our ancient past.
The ‘Ancient Aliens’ is likely my top pick there. ‘Ancient Discoveries’ is right up there near the top as well.
Love the segments on early weapons. It’s crazy, interesting, and brilliant, stuff to learn about. The Chinese were devious-genious…

It’s difficult to imagine how those large minds worked back then.
Of course ‘Battles BC’ is awesome too.
But as you are already well aware, there are dozens of great shows they produce. ‘Pawn Stars’ makes me laugh every episode. Go ChumLee.

‘Real Pirates of the Caribbean’ is also a marvelous historic program.
Arrrggg matey, Have a great evening, what’s left of it, all-righty?
Or you may walk the plank! smile
Eh, I didn’t suggest to keelhaul you.
Yeah, they were mean men and woman, on the trecherous high seas.

take care

PS, an empty ‘Buddy List’? Eh, that’s up to you bud.
Mine was finally started this evening…
Ah, check your PM folder.

Hi Vikas,
Wow, those crazy Greeks uh?
Yeah, crazy, they only brought us into modern medicine!

I often wonder how [if] in the future, ‘we’ will be looked back upon, and the thoughts ‘they’ may have about us, then?
I mean, we could hardly get past gasoline engines, & the grand desire to bring on the war machine, although that has been going on since milenia… We couldn’t find peace. But also how so many folks are left to go hungry, especially the innocent children. Thank God and humanity for food banks and helpful friends… Hey, I’ve been there, I know how difficult it can be, when the cards aren’t turning up.
Hopefully, once my inheritance goes through, I will be able to live comfortably once again, and get back to what I consdider normal for me. I will very happily give back to those, who were there for me, in my times of need.

You know, this Forum gives people knowledge and Motif wisdom, but so very much more too.
The genuine friendships we long for, are here. The kindness folks like you and several others share at Motifator is most appreciated.
There have been a day or two, or nights also, that I have come here with tears in my eyes, after losing a close friend or relative, and the Forum really helped cheer me up.
I believe that Most people are too superficial or selfish to share the difficulties in life they negotiate through.
Although I’m quite sure, that expressing inner feelings and hurt emotions when that occurs, weren’t meant to be part of this Forum, but if you don’t open yourself up to possible ridicule, you may never get closer to people, they may never truly know who you are, inside. The spirit and soul are what really makes the man, not the physical being.
I find vulnerability as a blessing, not a curse. It shows that we are only human. Other animals aren’t able to express hurt or fear, it’s usually fight or flight. But as we are able to, that must mean something important that differentiates us from other mammals. Ok, jumping off the soap box now.
I need to wipe my tears dry anyway. Thanks for allowing me to be expressive, in my own way here.

Take it easy

Chas

Hi delirium,
1. This only proves that You don’t comprehend English language enough, to make educated comment, but only your “off the wall” statements.

2. I believe what Dave’s stating here, is simply thus:
Motif XF continues to be outselling Kronos, with her twice as many sales, and that this significant difference, carries on today.

3. So in explaining this fact to further help you understand a little bit better the concept:
If you tally the total sales of both the Motif XF and the Kronos-from the date the Kronos was released for sale, the Motif still has double the sales numbers, ongoing.
That doen Not include the unit’s sold prior, very huge numbers…

4. Please Get over yourself ok, you’re [foolhardy] really not that cute!!

Eh, but we love you… “comedien’s”

Ah, be good!!

Chas

redhotpoker, well I thought you’re just annoying but you are plain stupid. Let us ignore you then.

Some little village is still missing an idiot!
Oh I wonder where the fool went?

I feel fortunate that we have you here, it helps me to build up my self esteem, just a pinch though.

Stop being an A-hole!! Maybe you’ll finally get some respect.

I’ve been here over a year, and reading 99% of delirium posts = garbage = pure unadulterated nonsense = more bunk.

A Bull Shat on that…

Grow up!! This is too easy.
I need a real challenge in my Forum F.O.

If I told you how I truly feel, you’d be reading nothing but
hamburgers and more monkeys…

In every barrel there’s one stiff monkey, way at the bottom.
