Klarinet, as of late, has sure become a chat room. To an extent, this
is fine....after all, we're family (clarinet family). But, much of the
conversation is patter that has little to do with clarinet. I realize
that certain threads do often take off on a tangent, but some of this
conversation could, and maybe should be conducted privately. While of
interest to those participating, it could discourage some serious
minded folks who DO want to talk clarinet, music as it relates to
clarinet, etc.

Just a thought.
