Lisa,

I personally was not offended by your remarks, and you are right I did
intend to spur on discussion, serious discussion. Thank you for your
enlightened contribution.

However I was surprised to see so little response to such a controversial
subject.  I do have an understanding of proper "accepted" regulation methods
but sometimes we must throw these aside to get the immediate job done.  I
was first introduced to unusual procedures "privately" by Loyd Whitcomb when
I attended Yamaha's Little red schoolhouse in 1987. I at first thought he
was joking but since then I heard from concert technicians who also in
certain instances used this method. I had thought that this forum would be a
proper place to explore all the aspects of this "living on the edge"
methodology.

Thank you Bob Davis, Vince, and Jim Harvey for your contributions

Bob,
