tips

[pianotune05]

I guess we need to adopt the phrasie as women's clothes designers use in 
larger sizes, one size fits most.  Although I didn't say one lever was the 
best, so I'm not wrong, but I do like the schaff.  I've seen a lever that 
had a plastic screwdriver handle.  I like Joe Goss's lever with the ball. 
I've seen one of them, and they're pretty interesting.  How do you know that 
Guy has large hands? I take it that you guys all met at conventions.  I hope 
to meet you guys in Rochester.
