"Gay clientele" was RE: Erard Grand Piano

[w peterson]

I agree with you.  PTG has a whole bunch of Homophobes.  PTG also has whole
bunch of HOMOSEXUALS, and some of them are very high up, and much respected
in this organization.   Now are we going to have a piano forum or a
homofourm.  They would both be very interesting, but not on this forum, and
at this time. This is a time of national emergency and we all have to be of
one mind.  I will be glad to discuss any of this Homo stuff privately at
wpeterson2@socal.rr.com .
Bill Peterson,  former PTG member, but greatly interested in pianos.
