Oh yes, he is still busy educating pianos in the Seattle area. He=
 had the performing art center (Benaroya Hall) gig for a while a=
 couple of years ago. I had a chance to play the D that he had=
 educated for them. I remember liking the piano, however the=
 administration decided the piano need to be re-educated so they=
 hired Doug Wood, last I heard, to bring it back to the realm of=
 normalcy, I imagine. I'm sure some of the Seattle techs are more=
 up to date on all that. 
 
I've also played a couple of his rebuilds in his shop in south=
 Seattle. He also occasionally brings one of his pianos to a=
 regional conference. 
 
His instruments definitely have their peculiar character: Some=
 thinks its great others can't stand it. I appreciate his=
 excellent workmanship but I'm not sure its my cup of tea.
