One of the nice things about a list is, once you read something, you can go
back and reread to see if you missed anything. I didn't, but some
clarification may be necessary.

Of course there is always a difference between giving general information
and seeing/viewing/hearing/interacting and repeating one-on-one. But that
really isn't a revolutionary thought or idea. I don't know any good
teacher who would prescribe an answer to a student based on what someone
writes to a list such as this or in any other form of non-aural manner. I
know that you wouldn't - and I know that Neil wouldn't.

I agree with you on this issue. But I'm not sure what your point is.......

That's all folks - just wanted to make that clear!

Happy Holidays! We have 10.5" of snow, the dog is excited, the kids are
pumped, I won in 007 2 out of 3 this evening, and I finally received a
whole new shipment of mouthpiece blanks - including the altos.

Now.....with a wonderful glass of 1997 Bolle Soave - I toast the list for a
good year in provocative thinking!

Most warmly and with sincerely happy thoughts,
Roger Garrett
