of all persuasions -<br>
<br>
I don't know if this coming date was acknowledged at the Nashville =
Convention,
but it has gone completely unnoted here. And while those with =
first hand
information may be able to refine the record, according to the pianotech
archives, July 15, 1994 marks the originating post of what are now our
lists. I've reprinted it below.<br>
<br>
I am not articulate enough to impart, with any poetry or profundity, my =
deep
sense of the contribution these lists have made to the fabric of our =
lives, as
technicians and beyond. I was going to say how it has impacted the
experience of the PTG, and then reflected on the flirtation the lists =
have
always had with a certain independence from the Guild, as the two =
primary lists
have always been open to all. I note, as well, my suspicion (since =
I
don't have the data) that a sizable percentage of the PTG membership =
does not
partake of any of them. Nevertheless, I cannot, on any regular =
basis,
remain conscious of such a distinction. These lists would not =
exist, as
such, without the basic Guild community, and that community has been =
indelibly
affected by them. They are a trove.<br>
<br>
If I mention any names, I'm likely to offend by omission, but it's =
worth
going to archive to note those of the original contributors who have =
remained
active. Porritt, Swafford, McNeil are a few, but you =
others...you're
presence is preserved. And I would not permit myself to forgo
acknowledging my appreciation to two large presences, Newton Hunt and =
Danny
Boone. <br>
<br>
Thanks to all of you.<br>
