Remember the "burrs under the saddle from past rides" comment, Bill.  Here
you are bringing more to the surface even now.  It's very hard for me to
believe there is this much opposition now, or in the past, to Historical
Temperaments (HT) in and of themselves.  Something else is causing this
reaction you are receiving from others.

I personally know that the subscribers on this list, and other lists like
it, have helped me over the years learn in many ways to better present
myself and the ideas I wish to share without being antagonistic in the
process.  I hope in time that you are open and willing to discover and
learn the real humanity of the subscribers of pianotech as I have.

Sincerely, and not meaning any disrespect,
