 Re: Is there a (cheaper) substitute for cork grease?

... ohsusan! think i'm in big-big trouble, mega user of cork grease here
... just got another one coupla weeks ago (rental's refill freebie, heh heh heh) so their first little chap-stick tube only lasted me a bit over 6 months
... must say their oboe cork joints are beautifully soft, moist and supple, lucky them, and my own non-returnable reeds slide smoothly each time
... oops! blooper! i invested in another tube for my reed kit (to periodically condition stored recycled tube corks with it) ... cost Cdn1.43 (converted that's about U$1.20) which works out to Cdn 0.23 per month usage rate
... heck, if i can possibly learn to be less liberal on their oboe, maybe i can cut their overhead to 11 cents a month :-}

... which'd save some moolah to maybe bribe Ken ...
