Gordon, I do respect your opinions and expertise but am inclined to believe that the disadvantages of O-rings can be overcome with R&D. The elastomer formulation(s) in current use for O-rings were developed pretty much for fluid containment. Perhsps different formulations would be appropriate for air specific to the clarinet. I agree that cork is a unique and wonderful material for many uses and O-rings may never replace it for tenons.....but who knows for sure. The current cork substitutes used for wine bottles sure aren't fun to work with and there seems to be a gradual trend to screw caps.
