Thank you for qualifying your statements.  I initially misunderstood your
post as well.

I look on those type of negative attitudes you heard in Albuquerque as *man
wasn't born to fly* type attitudes.  The list could go on and on.

I guarantee you one thing, you won't see me give up this computor
(electronic aid/tool) for a journal and ledger ever again, or for longhand
letters.  Likewise, I'm not about to give up the SAT for a totally reliant
aural tuning practice.  Ironically, if a customer were to ever ask me to
not use the SAT because of an attitude thing, I would say okay and let them
know I charge more for that type of tuning.    :-)
