[Mike Kurta]

    Hi Gang:
    I've taken to wearing a magnetically attached nametag which allows the
use of any shirt I have.  It is 1"x3" and has my name in large letters, and
"Piano Technician" is smaller letters underneath.  Serves the same purpose
and especially useful in schools, churches, hotels and restaurants.  It also
allows the customer to see how your name is spelled to write the check
correctly.  Mike Kurta
