Grin... this is probably closer to the truth.

Seriously tho folks... whats the problem ? The origional posting was
about an unfortunate voicing experience in a concert situation. And our
freind from Cosmic Cowboy land learned a valuable lesson that I am sure
he remember.

We all know there are unreasonable people out there. Given the right
situation each and every one of us has no doubt been pretty off the wall
ourselves. None of this has much to do with the lesson learned above.
Seems like we've spent most of our time in replying to David by finding
ways of justifying him and ourselves....gone waaaaay out of our way to
write this pianist off as a totally unreasonable person not worth the
slightest consideration. Heck, this lady might as well go out and shoot
herself in the head given the degree of worth she so obviously lacks.

Im not sure whats more fun, reading these kinds of furries into customer
bashing, or watching Al and Thumpy talk politics, or Bill and Ed dueling
temperaments at 13 e-paces, or hearing about how Steinways are the worst
pianos on earth.

Grin... another day in the life of Pianotech. Good Morning Vietnam !!

Cheers
