[pianotech] New experiences

[Encore Pianos]

Yeh, and just think how much CO2 that puppy is going to blow into the
atmosphere.  It won't be global warming though, it will blow so much
particulate matter and dust into the upper atmosphere, that we'll probably
go into an ice age for a while instead.  

I'm starting to paint my "The World is Ending" signs.  I'll let Ron carry it
though, because he has the beard for it....   :-)

Will

I know, continuously active for at least a couple of million years, and
moving relative to the surface as the North American plate slides over a hot
spot in the mantle.

I read and think. Being paroled from school has proven to be by far the most
dramatic and long running educational improvement of my life. 
School probably set me back at least ten years, not counting early installed
false premises and outright lies that I'm still uncovering after all these
years. I wish I could have escaped sooner.

Unavoidably, which casts an interesting filter on my childhood memories of
visiting Yellowstone and watching the tourists, including us, cavorting
among the bomb only peripherally aware, in some cases, that we were
wandering around in an active volcano.

I read, and I know this one too.
