What a refreshing post coming from the ECC.  Some other members have 
been some of the most profuse amoungst those who would declare whats 
appropriate or not on this list... which I may add is part of why I am 
so open to the present proposal.

While I personally agree 1000 percent with every word you write below,  
I would also point out that I see no problem with Andys proposal.  If 
there are a few folks so inclined as to volunteer to edit this list for 
a pianotech-m version running parallel to the present list, then why not 
??  Those who desire a moderated list can have their wish, those who 
dont can have things as they are, and all done at a minumum of cost, 
effort, and delay so that everyone should be quite a bit happier with 
their situation then they are at present..... grin... except of course 
those who relish in seeing the infighting about exactly this subject 
matter carry on.

Btw... I got confimation the other day the Bill Bremmer is indeed 
watching and aware of our doings.  He sends his regards. 

GRIN...  the good old days ???

Cheers
