Dear Friends, We just returned from a 2 week trip to Colorado ( Lots of relatives, nice weather, mountains, relatives, driving, relaxation, relatives, and did I mention relatives? :-) ) While in Denver, I spotted this classified ad in the Rocky Mountain News for Monday 7/27/98, page 73E. "BLACK LACQUER KAWAI; upright, has string humidifier. $3000.00. Call xxx-xxxx" I guess I didn't realize how dry it gets in Denver if you have to have a humidifier to keep the strings from getting too dry! Obviously this person has no idea why their piano has a Dampp-Chaser humidity control system installed. Here is an opportunity for a piano technician in Denver to do extra customer education! Glad to be back! David David A.
