I agree. Mark, you are doing a great job. The Sneezy forum is somewhere I go every day if I can. It is great that I can both learn and contribute.
One suggestion Mark, perhaps you could put the word EMBOUCHURE in big letters at the top of the page, so that we don't have to keep apologising for not being able to spell it! :^)

Me too. This is one of my favorite sites. It's so rare to find such a comprehensive trove of information all assembled in one place and then well-maintained. I think the constant site maintenance is a major plus here, because so many sites that start off well end up with portions obsolete or non-functional through neglect or lack of know-how by the webmasters. We're lucky to have a computer professional who *also* plays clarinet in charge here. Thanks, Mark.

Thanks for the sneezy post. I have always been curious and knew there had to be a story there somewhere. As a Sneezy sponsor, I have found many of the hits on my web page come from here, so it is a great place for clarinet players to visit.

Ditto!! Mark. I have found many friends with interests similar to mine by reading and posting. I recommend Sneezy to all of my local associates so as to expand what advice I can give when asked. Don

I endorse everything said above. I have one small suggestion. Over the months, one gets to know other clarinet players quite well on this site. Would it be possible to have a section where contributors could post a couple of lines about themselves if they desire. It would sure help to flesh out some of the names.

Unfortunately there are predators on the Internet from many places, and some restrictions on gathering such information. If I provide a place then I may be considered to be soliciting the information, and there's a law that requires me to get parental permission of all those under (14 I think) via credit card numbners, etc. If you mention something here I'm pretty well covered legally, but it's another restriction on what we can and can't do.
A few bad apples ...

I have to admit, I love Sneezy too...I agree with posting the evil E word on top of the page or something :o). Anyways, I totally agree with every thing else too, only adding that I really appreciate the time you put into this page. Thank you ever so much!

One additional thing, Mark . . .
I appreciate how vigilant you are about reading new posts. Your comments are always helpful, and you do a great job of keeping out unrelated or misplaced postings. One of sneezy's strengths is how focused it stays, and the 2nd Law says that doesn't happen without energy input. Thanks again.
