On NPR several weeks ago they interviewed a member of the Baghdad Symphony 
Orchestra. It appears that even during the time of suppression under Hussein, 
classical music was being played and listened to. This got me to thinking. 
How wonder many pianos there are in Baghdad, and if there is a need for piano 
tuner/technicians? Any one want to volunteer to go over there after the war 
is over and set up shop?
