People surprise you. About a year ago I wrote about this guy who called me. He had a Kawai or Yamaha console that had been ignored for over a decade and now he wanted top flight care for it. He even wanted to come see my shop (I don't have one) and meet me for breakfast, to see if I was a worthy person to work on his beloved baby, I guess. He found my name on the PTG list of RPTs and told me I was the guy he was looking for. I mean, he was on a quest! I was backlogged at the time and said I would call him when I could get to it, although these strange requests of his made me nervous. When I finally did call him, he said not now because people owed him $10,000. I never heard from him again, and I hope I never do. All I can figure out is that he was playing a game, and, given the fact that he ignored the piano for more than ten years, he doesn't really care that much for the beloved baby after all. Or maybe he changed his mind and called someone else. I hope so.
