The "parties involved" are all the people who subscribe to this list. As one of those "involved" your answer below certainly is not to my satisfaction. In reality when you make comments which are perceived as offensive, as inappropriate as you did, the polite thing to do is acknowledge you goofed up, apologize and move on. Many of us have done so many times. Would be nice to see you do the same.</BLOCKQUOTE> Just ignore it, Joe.  Gina tries to control everyone she doesn't like and will use all of her *powers* to do so.  While I see your point about a religious quote not being appropriate to this List, I didn't really feel it was inappropriate so long as it ended there. What is inappropriate is the desire of one individual to assert her opinion as if it were law, something which I see as habitual from Gina. This List is for the discussion of Piano Technology and related issues.  I have found the discussion of the difficulty of pipe organ tuning as it relates to the piano to be fascinating and informative. I rarely find any comments by Gina Carter to be of any interest or value whatsoever.  They are usually a reflection of her compulsive desire to exert pressure, power and control over others (see the remarks about her behavior in Council).   You don't owe anyone an apology, Joe.  Let's just move on to another topic or continue with the pipe organ vs. piano tuning discussion and dismiss the commands from the self appointed monarch.
