Greg,

Is Richard now making mouthpieces with asymetrical facings??? He spoke
somewhat negatively of that approach when I visited with him only two years
ago. And the mouthpieces I have as well as at least one student here at
IWU made by Richard are in fact symetrical facings.

Sincerely,
Roger Garrett
