Thanks David!

I appreciate the feedback.  Those are all excellent ideas! I was  
probably pretty tired when I got to this page, so I figured....  
hmmm... pianos.  Okay... pianos. And that's all I have.  I really like  
the local music stores and teachers idea. I'm going to do that.  Maybe  
I'll put the manufacturers under a bottom section on the links page,  
and put all the local stuff on top.

I should be getting a package from the PTG shortly of all the past  
issues of the Journal that are available.  I'll look up David's  
article.  You don't know the month and year it was published, do you?

Regards,

Rob
