Well, Mr. William Fuller, I'm happy for you as a teacher, a most honorable profession.

I'll be sure to send your comments to Frank Cohen, my friend and fellow clarinetist. I'm sure he will appreciate hearing your thoughts as he and his colleagues in Cleveland prepare for what may be a long work stoppage.

"As a retired teacher, who--after 34 yrs experiance--earned less than half of the second salary figure cited and with NO paid vacation days, I don't consider the managements offer to be that unfair, considering current economic conditions. Jobs are being lost everywhere and those with employment are being asked to do more with less tax payers dollars available--especially in the public sector. I would say, quite whining, start practicing and get back to work.......things are tough all over."

I personally have been involved in strikes on Broadway, at the NYC Opera, in St. Louis with the Symphony, and in NJ, where as chairman of the Orchestra's Negotiating Committee, I was fired for our stand against an unfair management proposal. It's always easier to sit in a comfortable place and pass judgment on others, but it's real hard when you're living it!
