So either way, I may have done some good - I usually am ignored so totally that a thread simply dies the minute I post to it. That would be a good thing in this case. On the other hand, I've just told you two things about the piano industry that will have a major affect on the marketplace, and as a result could have an impact on you. Maybe that will earn me the right to learn the secret handshake. But it seems to me it would make more sense to discuss these two issues than to discuss politics.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
