<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As a newcomer to the piano =
technician
world I wanted to take a chance to say that those in the Piano =
profession as a
whole have been extremely helpful and receptive to me as newcomer. =
I have
recently spoke to some concerning ETD's and received great amounts of =
help on a
personal level; phone calls, email, etc. I called Randy Potter's =
phone
number on his website thinking that a secretary would answer the =
phone and
Mr. Potter himself answered the phone and spent a good 15 minutes =
with me
offering advice. Mr. Danny Moore in Houston has helped me =
tremendously.
Greg Newell has been helpful. Mr. Cleworth has answered me =
promptly.
Everyone has always been very quick to answer.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I think that there are a great bunch of =
people in
this profession and it's up to us to keep it that way. Every time =
I've
asked a question, I've received professional answers in professional
manners. The Dallas, TX PTG has been extremely helpful as well as =
those on
the pianotech list. Our chapter Pres. Dan Reed has taken much of =
his time
to correspond with me and help me progress. Mr. Leon Spier has =
treated me
like I'm actually important. Everyone I've came in contact with =
has went
out of their way to try to advance the Piano
Technician profession.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I guess that all I can say is, "Keep it =
Up, Set the
example".</FONT></DIV>
