[CAUT] CAUT credential vs. academic program?

[Richard Brekne]

    Yo Mr. Brekne and Mr. Love,

    If you two simply MUST squabble and go after one another,
    how about taking it off list? I, for one, see almost no
    light and mostly smoke and heat emerging from the blasts
    you seem to enjoy sending at one another.
    Regards,
    Fred


Fred... I agree entirely the comments thrown do not be on the list.  But 
I do not see that I threw anything beyond a single <<grin>>.  Otherwise 
I simply refused to bite but stood by my on topic statements. I dont 
enjoy any of the blasts thrown at folks.

Kind of ironic really.. just three weeks ago in Helsinki at the Nordic I 
found myself defending exactly Mr. Love, and Mr Nossaman and other 
rebuilders of like or similar mind against the same kind of behavior.  
One of Europe's finest piano manufacturers leveled a vicious attack on 
rescalers and rebuilders who change even the slightest detail.  He even 
used the name of a scaling program in his lecture. So I called him on it 
and challenged him to offer some topical reasoning instead of relying on 
ridicule. And I did so in public.  Its in my blood to reject dogma... at 
least when it qualifies as being a point of view or tenet put forth as 
authoritative without adequate grounds.  Even more ironic.... it is 
exactly this same impulse that seems to lay at the root of the 
<<opposing view>> in the present discussion. 

I don't see the need to disagree with such open and obviously conscious 
disrespect.  Whats wrong with just plain not seeing eye to eye and 
staying friends despite ? And I don't see why some seem to be 
<<allowed>> just about any transgression and others are nailed the 
second they open their mouth in protest.

Shoot... and we were all getting on really well for a good long while in 
this discussion.
