Hi Janie,

I actually think those words may be by the person who put that site up.
I attempted to contact the person I saw listed via email, but the
message bounced back.

Nowhere can I find this attributed to Jefferson.

No matter ... I like it anyway, and I just credited the site URL!

On another topic ... and to everyone: at my oboe site I've put together
some pages that list the oboists and bassoonists of professional
symphony, opera and ballet orchestras. (See
http://oboe.planetmitchell.com/stories/storyReader$361 to begin with.)
If any of you are in, or know of, professional organizations that
aren't yet listed I'm happy to receive emails with all the necessary
information (names, positions, orchestra *with* URL...). Thanks!

(And I apologize to those of you on both this list and the IDRS list,
since this request duplicates my IDRS message.)

Patty
