Subj: What's on sneezy
Date: Thu, 23 Jan 1997 20:56:35 -0500

There have been a number of questions sent to me as to
"What is (on) sneezy?" "Why?" "Can I help?" For those that haven't
been there, here's a quick summary. For those who have - maybe
it's been a while & you've forgotten what's on there.

http://sneezy.mika.com is a Web server dedicated to clarinet
information. It hosts Stan Geidel's Online Clarinet resource
(http://sneezy.mika.com/OCR) and the Clarinet Info Pages
(http://sneezy.mika.com/clarinet), formerly the FAQ. I rolled
Vic Freyer's FAQ (which sneezy hosted) into the Info Pages and
reorganized sneezy recently.

Why is it names sneezy and why do I host clarinet information?
I promised Stan Geidel I'd write an article about it, so you'll
have to read it there (when I get around to writing it, Stan).

Can you put your own pages there?
Yes, if they're non-commercial. I'm open to hosting other
clarinet related pages there. There's lots of room.

I have a commercial company - can I add my company's name to
your Retail listing?
Sure - mail the listing to music@-----.com

How much time do you spend on the pages each week?
20-30 hours.

Can I help out?
Please do!! I have plenty of work to go round. I could easily spend
over 100 hours a week entering data or doing research.

Can I submit an article?
Sure - either Stan Geidel or I would be happy to host your submissions.
Heck, I'll even "HTML"ize it for you.
