Perhaps so, but I am one who would say that. I think that all the major
acousticians would agree with me. To contradict that view, one would have
to have at a minimum two mouthpieces, one plastic and one hard rubber, and
be able to prove that they are 100% equivalent dimensionally in every
possible way.

However, despite the fact that I say I disagree with you on this point,
given our recent experience on the list, I will certainly not debate with
you about it.
