Don't worry about putting your foot in your mouth. There are many people
here with athlete's breath. This forum is for you to express your opinions,
concerns or gripes just as much as it is for anyone else to do the same.
Some folks take all this with a grain of salt, and there are others that
take any kind of comment as an affront (and that is just too bad for them).
As far as not being a professional clarinettist don't worry about that
either. Most people here aren't pros. This is a place for people that love
the clarinet and clarinet playing.

Have fun,

Gary
