Subj: Re: Urgent Plea -- Writing in Rental Parts is Evil!
Date: Sat, 28 Mar 1998 17:39:35 -0500

Actually, I'm kind of happy to say that I haven't had the experience that
some of you have been discussing. Then again, I haven't done much
involving rental parts -- two musicals is hardly enough experience. But
what I was always told was that pencil markings are okay, just erase them
before returning them or stiff fines would be imposed on the people who
rented them from the company. Plus fines for any other damage to the
rental parts.

Just wondering: These parts you've been seeing markings in all over --
were they predominantly musicals, operas, other? Not that it really has
any significance. I was just curious. Thanks,

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to
see it, do the other trees make fun of it?

If an elephant falls, which suffers more: the elephant or the ground?
