[CAUT] Bass String Thread

[David Skolnik]

Hey Greg -
Are you, like, tripping? or something?  (just kidding, sort 
of).  Hoping you're not as, otherwise, the following analogy will really
push you over the edge,  I think of the quote from a guy I read about 
once who got his hand caught in some machine and had the presence of 
mind to pull out his knife and cut it off before he was pulled into 
the machine.  "It was a hard thing to do, but I done it".  The quote 
has stayed with me, but I try not to imagine myself in his 
predicament, too often.   What's it mean?  You do what you got to 
do.  If you're in a "must splice" situation, then splice.  No need to 
obsess over it, but it might be worthwhile to keep your splicing 
skills up.  Also, carry a pocket knife.  Or two.  (your emotocon here)
