Mike, I suggest that your statement (reproduced below) about a posting
by me is absolute nonsense. I NEVER posted one suggesting that I wanted
a basset horn for the reason you stated. Furthermore, I challenge you
to find the note that you allege I wrote and post it.

Also, I have no recollection of ever posting the price of my basset horn
either, though I did state that I was getting one.

I suggest that your memory of this alleged posting is as flawed as your
grammar.
