But I didn't think I'd, y'know, ~psoted it~ 'fore, like . . . ^now^. Then, too (-: and what your anecdote more vividly recalled in me :-), there was the obligatory bagpiper-or-five per Renaissance Faire I've got in a more recent memory buffer I might have found something to ~babble about~ . . . but, again, no . . . no "bagpipe" cynecdotes ;-) (-: IOW: I've certainly never psoted to rec.music.makers.bagpipe. :-) And I'll thank y'all not to call me "Cindy". :-) :-| :-) </minihijack> And my oil pit predates yr "ink pit" (-: by less than an hour! :-). Thanks for posting, Michael. :-) \\//_ - cyn -- Lord, protect me from those to whom McDonald's has sold Super-Sized servings of Coca-Cola; protect me from McDonald's patrons, world-wide; protect us all from the consequences of their free will decisions, even if it means rain. Cyncerely, Cynthia A Moyer, hostage. Amen.
