In fact, if you read my posting, you will see that I said:

"One of the tutors on the Newark course has been my old friend and colleague Daniel Bangham, who made all my period instrument copies: Simiot, Grenser, reconstructed basset clarinet, Griesbacher bassethorn. I haven't spoken to him, but I'm sure that he would be very interested to know what is idiotic about this material inevitably associated with his work."

I subsequently made that even more clear, when YOU said:

"I suspect he [Tony] is bored and wants to liven things up with a good fight. At any rate, he tried to start things by highjacking a two-year-old thread to demand that I justify what I wrote. He then repeated the challenge by starting this thread, using the (to me) frivolous excuse that I had insulted a friend of his."

...I replied:

"Notice also that I didn't claim that Daniel Bangham (the probable author of the text) would be INSULTED. I simply said that he would be interested to know where he was wrong -- if he was. Though I don't suppose he would be especially pleased, he is the sort of person who would be more interested in having it (finally) right."

> Tony, you may be enlightened by looking up the definition of "projection" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_projection

Yeah. Not.

Perhaps I won't bother with the other post I mentioned writing. I just can't be arsed, for someone like you.
