Isaac, In regards to this particular procedure, I would be most happy to attribute to you all honor and privileges pertaining thereunto. I will be the first in line to support your patent application. In fact, may I have a few of your business cards to leave in the piano so the customer may know whom to call in the unlikely event of a mishap? I had been making the final registration adjustments using my own cards, but my lawyer felt it best to discontinue this practice after having had to exchange a few unpleasantries with various customers, therefore the step up to the Cornflakes boxes. As to having changed my name to fit the business, I deny all allegations to the contrary with the utmost vehemence! As I was in the car business at the time (hence, Otto) wishing to make a career change, I had considered "Otto Touche de Clavier", but was advised that the juxtaposition of the Germanic & the French was a bit too much unless I planned to reside in the Alcase Lorraine region. Actually, it is pronounced "kize", with a long i, as in "eyes with a K in front". Perhaps I should have been an ophthalmologist, given the pronunciation. I hear they make a bit more money than the figures which were recently bandied about on this list. Best quit before the late becomes early....& I have to go back to work....the day after today.
