Mark, and everyone on this list, all of you have been a very mature and
thoughtful bunch. Most of the time the posts are insightful and a pleasure to
read. Just so everyone understands, this can of worms, has come up on other
lists in the past, and has sparked the same acid tainted comments, by people
in the business and players alike. Lets forget it, and keep this little group
going. There are far more interesting projects to discuss on this list. You
know with help from everyone, we can come up with products of our own, that
will benefit the people on this list as well as other musicians. I myself are
having new products designed for the clone wheelers, so lets concentrate on
what we need.

Best Regards,
Tony
