At no time did I ever "forbid"=20 anyone to use the acronym, "PSO". What I did say was that for a beginner, "= I=20 would try to curtail the kind of thinking that would lead you to call your=20 own piano a "PSO". =A0This is what a person who is basically insecure about=20= his=20 or her set of knowledge and skills says." A previous post from you showed that you did not even understand the meaning= =20 of the acronym but you were so sure that my intention was to "dictate" to=20 others which kinds of words are acceptable and not that you did what is=20 called "flying off the handle". I'll always remember a little story told by= =20 one of the best teachers I ever had. The moral to his story was, "You can't= =20 fly off the handle when you're full of baloney". If it pleases you, you can use the acronym "PSO" all you want. Go ahead and= =20 call every piano you work on a "PSO". Complain and gripe about the=20 manufacturer and how they should have made a better piano for you to work on= .=20 Tell everyone how stupid all of the people are who have these "PSO"'s in=20 their homes and how futile an endeavor such as making music on them would be= .=20 Elevate yourself above everyone else by making us all believe that you are=20 God's gift to the piano industry but there just has never really been a pian= o=20 made yet that is anywhere close to being worthy of your superior skills. You can start your own moderated List. Call it "PSOtech". Make it a charte= r=20 rule that I, Bill Bremmer RPT will *never* be allowed to subscribe. The=20 moderator will make sure that all posts denigrate the piano industry by only= =20 allowing the acronym "PSO" to be used rather than, "spinet", "console",=20 "upright", etc. Of course, any off topic posts will be welcome, especially=20 sick jokes that make fun of women and minorities. No actual questions about= =20 piano service will actually appear because all of the subscribers will=20 already know everything there is to know and will be so bored and jaded by=20 technical posts that they don't write any or even want to read any. But talking about how bad a particular manufacturer's products *all* are=20 (without exception) will be welcome. There won't be any solutions for these= =20 problems, of course, just plenty of complaining and griping and wishing we=20 could build bonfires out of or sink all of those PSO's in the ocean. You'll= =20 get plenty of one line responses, cheering you on and agreeing with you to=20 every insult to the profession you make. Just think of how great it would be to have such a list as "PSOtech". You'd= =20 never have to read anything I write or see my screenname appear. Everyone=20 would be your friend and you could all hate the line of work you have chosen= =20 together in blissful freedom, out of range of the "Dictator". But until you get that PSOtech List going, you'll just have to do as you hav= e=20 so often suggested: filter, delete and do not respond to my outrageous=20 attacks, insults, paranoid schizophrenic rambling and sociopathic behavior.
