Subj: [kl] Plateau-keyed Clarinet

I know Leblanc makes a couple different plateau-keyed models, and I'm pretty
sure that at least one of them is wood. Of course, considering what we've
heard about LeBlanc recently, this advice doesn't necessarily help :)
I'm fairly certain that neither Buffet nor Selmer makes a plateau-keyed
clarinet, but I could easily be wrong.
