 RE: r sax and clarinet fingerings r the same?

To say that the flute and saxophone have the same fingerings is completely wrong. EVERY and ANY instrument has fingerings unique to its construction. Because of the system of the fingerings (Boehm or whatever), some fingerings on one instrument may be similar to the fingerings on another but they were never intended to be the same. Also because of the size of the instrument and the limitation that 10 fingers (8 fingers and two thumbs for people who like to be correct) gives us, the fingerings of some instruments are similar.
