Hang in there, you old H F'er, You should be feeling better already, I had my 4 about 2 years ago. It took about a month to recoup, sim. to our best French Horn player in comm. band, and we are still playing, even tho somewhat older than you, but good care and caution is recommended. Don

Thanx, Mark, Don

Although Fountain won't ever see this, my best wishes and thoughts go out to him for a speedy recovery.

My wishes, also, for Pete's complete return to health and many continuing years of enriching our world of clarinetistry.

Also, I am happy to report hearing (Mar 19) that Chuck Hedges is out of the hospital and is once again playing his clarinet. A friend told me that he is quite weak and is hardly able to make it up to the microphone, but that once he is there, he is sounding a great as ever.
