 obscured by the language of an over-active imagination. I was also glad
 to clear up any misunderstanding that  the old "Tune it in the Fall and
 then again in The Spring" is not a federal mandate, but just longstanding
 convention wisdom (just how wise, we're discussing here. Larry Fine's
 "Piano Book" has  pertinent insight on this.)

Hello Bill,

Yes, I guess we both went off the deep end with our egos!

I agree completely that we are "both doing the  same thing during a day's
work" and that this job is hard enough without this exra-curricular
wrangling.  Whatever works within the parameters of professional standards
and ethics are lively subjects for debate and discussion, eh?  That's what I
like about this list...it's always entertaining and informative.

Thanks for the patience and understanding for a new de-lurker.


And thank you so much for the  " two pints of Ben&Jerry's Cherry Garcia ice
cream.
(Vermont's Finest.) "  My fax had a hard time with it, though.

 I've taken the liberty to mail you one of Michigan's finest hard rock maple
trees.  It should arrive sometime next week!



Best,
