"Feelin' in Tune? (part I)

[pianoman]

Dear David.  There is a big difference between alternative medicine or
natural remedies.  When you go to the MD you get pills.  Normally the pills
solve a symptom of the problem, not the problem.  My wife is a Doctor of
Chiropractic and even I can tell you some crazy quacky things MD's have
done with pills.  There is no one doctor for everything.  Just because you
are a great tuner doesn't make you a fine rebuilder and vice-versa.
