too much O.T.

    I'm another one who is about ready to unsubscribe to the list =
because rather than getting educational discussions of piano rebuilding =
and servicing, and answers to problems I run into on the job,  I get: =
American nostalgia, space shuttles, sexual habits of Native Americans, =
Amerigo Vespucci's exploits, political discourses on presidential =
actions (of the U.S., not PTG), mindless banter, and rantings and =
ravings ad nauseam.=20
    It wasn't like this (not as bad, anyway) last year -- what happened? =
 Isn't the content of this list monitored, and edited at least for the =
archives? =20
    If people in other music-related fields are referred to this list or =
the archives for edifying information regarding their piano problems and =
questions, what will be their impression of the Guild, when the =
discussions include the above-mentioned crap?  These people could be =
performing artists, college music professors, amateur rebuilders (some =
of whom could be new PTG members seeing this list for the first time),  =
technicians from other countries, and other professionals, perhaps doing =
research for a book or considering going into the piano service field. =20
    All this off-topic stuff "cuts a bad figure" for a PTG-related =
newsgroup.  There are thousands of other groups and chat rooms =
available.  Use them for your diatribes, not this list.
