Am I really supposed to answer this last question or is your mind so
made up that a rational argument has become a series of barriers that
you pose as legitimate questions? I don't think you want answers to
these issues. What I think you want is for me to say, "Oh, well I
never thought about that problem. Of course you are right. I'm going
to go home and do penance."

I have time for rational dialogue but no time for questions for which
no answer will satisfy you.

Dan, I think you've got me wrong here. I would love to buy a basset clarinet.
I'd love showing it off, and I would beg my conductor, on bended knee, to be
allowed to play K. 622.

My only point, if indeed I had one, was that there is really no body of
literature sufficient for me to need a basset clarinet or to justify the
expense at this time.

Also, I wanted to know if it was realistic to use the basset clarinet in A as
my regular A clarinet. You did answer that question.
