Discussion among Peers (was: Lighten Touch)

[Tom Dickson]

Hello, All!

  I have to agree with Terry on this one.

  My experience is limited.  I have all of the Potter material to fall back 
on.  I also have the Reiblitz books, Jorgensen's book, etc.  These fellows 
have put out some very specific information.  I work with their stuff to try 
to understand the intent and requirements of piano work.  In most cases, it 
works well, just as my own observations in certain situations have served me 
well.

  When people post questions to this list, it may very well be that they 
have a procedure / solution in mind.  They are just simply asking the list 
if there are other ideas, newer ideas, or better ideas with which to work.

   It's the same story in Piano Technology as anywhere else:  The more you 
learn, the more you realize that you don't know!

   So to the "sharers", thanks for giving so generously of your time and 
knowledge.  To the "lurkers", let's hear from you more, and let's hear some 
thanks to those who have helped you!

   If you are unwilling to help, that's your right.  So, don't respond to 
queries.

   What I or anyone else does with comments made on this list is solely our 
responsibility.  We are where the "rubber hits the road" regarding customer 
service.  Hopefully , we will be able to give an educated response to any 
inquiry we receive, even if that response is a referral to another tech.

Sincerely,
Tom Dickson
