Folks, we ALL need to get into the habit of adding "for me" at the end of every
sentence in which we give summary judgments like this. Perhaps Mitchell Luries
are fuzzy FOR YOU, but your message gives an incorrect impression to the many
readers of this list whose critical thinking skills have not been honed by
years of digesting press releases and marketing fluff. In MY case, Mitchell
Lurie Premiums are my best choice. They give me a full, warm tone, far
superior to what I get from the Vandoren V12s, Zondas or Grand Concert Thick
Blanks I've been experimenting with recently.

We all have opinions, and we should ALL feel the freedom to express them.
That's the whole point of this list. But let's make clear what are opinions
and what are facts. "Ricos are cheap" is a fact. "Mitchell Luries are fuzzy
for me" is a fact. But "Mitchell Luries are fuzzy" is an opinion.
