Now Richard, I really don't understand your indefensible insistence that a manufacturer was actively trying to deafen you, as an excuse for not performing a scheduled tuning. I know that's hard to admit, but it's the sad truth. The fact that you have stubbornly refused all these years, to invest, whatever the cost, in the equipment necessary to do high level professional work under impossible circumstances means that you are hard headedly and narrow mindedly refusing to throw yourself on whatever sword is offered in order to make that single tuning fee. Shame be on you and your profession as a result of your dereliction, sir. You have abandoned the faith. A buck is a buck is a buck, and as an alleged professional service provider, all jobs offered you must be cheerfully engaged without regard to the equitable return in final result against cost in time, equipment, mortality, or torchlight parades across the Moors just ahead of the scythes and pitchforks. You are, I see, currently engaged in attempts at defending yourself in light of your heretical attitudes and villainous actions. This is as it should be. Having attended a few of the evening receptions at Arlington this year should have made it abundantly clear to you that there is no such thing as "too noisy" for truly professional piano service people. We shall all try our best to forget this indiscretion - and will eventually, but it will require your unreserved and total participation and compliance. We will tolerate no further displays of this sort. You have been warned, sir! (ha!) Ron N
