It's Reality TV (or more likely, reality e-community). The Jerry 
Springer Show for piano tuners. Live shows, nightly! It will be these 
and more. But we need to strain it.

I like Rich's three classes of contributions:

I think that each of us should survey our postings since the new
year, and see how each of them sorts out into these three categories.
Of my 53:

On-Topic Posts 			31
	(what we're supposed to be..)
1.) Religiolitics    			(none)
2.) Moments of contest and intemperance   3
3.) Drivel & Noise       		19

It's good to look in the mirror. Has anyone else tried this. I think
this is how the list will be self-edited.
