It did not bother me...he didn't use my name, and maybe someone else benefitted from his advice besides me. I've sent many private letters, only to reduce clutter on the site. If someone thinks it's a good topic for discussion, let 'em go. There's no way on God's earth anyone would know who originated the question. While Bill sometimes raises eyebrows, he also has given me some great tips. This site has provided me so much info....it's much easier to solve a problem here than my local chapter simply because it's hard to catch folks at home on the phone. Hope to see you around, Tom. -- Frank Cahill Associate Member, Piano Technicians Guild Northern Va
