I received a pleasant surprise just now at the web site of the ENCYCLOPÆDIA BRITANNICA, http://www.britannica.com/ I searched the encyclopedia for "piano" and the search yielded a page that lists web piano links, and #1 on that list of links from ENCYCLOPÆDIA BRITANNICA was our own "Piano Page." The ENCYCLOPÆDIA BRITANNICA description of the Piano Page follows: The Web's Best Sites The Piano Page Piano Technicians Guild Rating: [2 stars] Extensive collection of information on the piano, provided by the Piano Technicians Guild. Offers assistance concerning the purchase and care of pianos, as well as details regarding the industry, including lists of manufacturers and dealers, foundations and conventions, and technicians. Provides photographs, material about piano museums and research, and a discussion of related literature. In the ENCYCLOPÆDIA BRITANNICA piano article there is a very good picture of a grand action (but the picture of a grand piano is not so accurate... oh well). Congratulations to the originator of the piano page, Ron Berry. Kent Swafford
