Tim 

Apologies accepted. But now you've made me mad. How can you go off?hiking in the Black Hills, and just leave me here in the wasteland of the South Pacific.

Wim,?

I have been hiking in the Black Hills of South Dakota all day and have thought about what I said to you. I was too much over the top with my comments and I apologize.?
?
I needed to just clear up a misconception about the size of the pianos. They were both 185s. My understanding is these are not small pianos.?
?
You are correct that I should not have used sarcasm nor made the comments I did in my second post. I apologize for what I said in both posts.?
?
