Converting Orchestrelle to Play 88-Note Rolls
By Randolph Herr

On second thought, I have been re-reading the letters sent in to
MMD and paid particular attention to the negative ones.  All I can
say is "Hah!" -- those nasty letters only strengthened my resolve to
disembowel a nice virgin Orchestrelle.  And forget about restorable
changes.  Not only am I going to do as vicious and messy a conversion
as possible, but I will plant explosive bolts inside the swell cabinet
so any attempt to restore the machine will trigger a small atomic bomb
disguised as an Orgo-Blow unit, causing a nuclear winter all over the
Earth.  So there!
