Dan, this is SOOO exciting! Congratulations! You bet I'll read this -
I LOVE mysteries! And of course, I'll buy it! Heaven only knows, I
would NEVER want to be accused of having THAT dark of a sound! Nor
would I wish for my mother's good name to be slandered by even the mere
association with a C clarinet or a Tenor sax, not to mention association
with a daughter alleged to play...gasp...polkas! 8-O
