Spike,
It never ceases to amaze me the quality of people who actually get degrees
who are otherwise intelligent human beings stuck in a system they
themselves ultimaely become the victimes of. You my dear boy seemto be one
of them. I certainly hope that you can play the clarinet with more depth
than you understand simple acoustics which can be discerned through
"eyes-on" geometry.
If I did not hit on a deep nerve of truth you would not have responded in
such a way. I do not have to prove anything yet I do not expect you to
believe what I say for gospel. You see only what you know or are taught and
programmed to believe. Anything which challenges your beliefs which does
not conform to the "proper" function of the imposed society which confines
your creative understanding is as much the enemy as a Navajo is to a
Catholic Spaniard. The inquisition never ceases. Only the names and faces
play musical chairs.
Hey... You are in New Mexico, yes. Perhaps central and south americans
were only ion fashion in the 60's and 70's and pot smoking was not a factor
in the 30's or brewed in a tea for upset stomach. Does thatalso mean that
anyone in California using medical marijuana dresses like a hippie.
Please spare me the "Guistappo Student Body" speaches which seem to be so
prevaiolant among today's brainwashed media-spawned youth.
:-) Smile.......

"You Take The High Notes" http://helius.carroll.com/p/leo_g/ There is a
difference between "dealers" and musicians that love not only the sound of
music but the tools which make it possible for people to play music. It's
important to set things free so they may ultimately find their way to
their intended parties. I am especially interested in Musical Instrument
History and technical data. Please email me with interesting links. Thank
you:-) Leo
