everyone is to sit silently for 3 years listening to their own ambient
body sounds, whilst I utter the following word repeating constantly for
1/2 minute "Rubbish", then disappear to the nearest bar for lunch with
my beautiful wife, come back home and play one eighth note on clarinet.

...well, I have just returned from a trip in my time machine, and I
enjoyed your playing, Tony, but.... I really think that you should've
played the single 1/8-note in 9/8 time rather than 3/4. (the
accelerando with diminuendo was delightful, however)

Cheers,
Bill
