Subj: Re: [kl] cork failure

Sandee, Thanks for the idea! It was me, the nieve young 13 year old player,
Kimber. I hadn't thought about dental floss! That actually seems like a good
idea, but one question? What about greasing the cork? Wouldn't it get caught
up on the floss? Just wondering. Thanks! I'll have to try that. We don't
have the money to bring my clarinet in, because a cork isn't all....other
corks have fallen off, and I think I have some loose keys. So, until then, I
think I'll use the floss idea. Thanks!
Kimber
