That may not be all that important ( that's "impordant" in the sou.. er, South, by the way ) where you live, but it's worth about a quart's worth of debate in Florida, as I understand it, Southern Comfort apparently being the coin of the realm. All things considered, you need to factor in the source, region of origin, the heavy handed taunting with the clues and hints in the later stages, and the disturbing possibility that the whole thing was rigged in the first place just to drive up the price of your personal convention expenses. While I admit a certain appreciation, if not actual admiration of the relatively subtle and complex machinations involved in getting you in precisely this position, I must, with whatever decorum and illusion of propriety I can muster at this point, regret having been suckered into such a shabby and nefarious scheme under the guise of a harmless technical service conundrum. In retribution, I think we should pool our collective weight, and possibly height, at the Yamaha reception and see to it that the perpetrator is forced to subsist solely on club soda and cellophane packaged saltines for the entirety of the evening, though this will probably supercede, cancel, and/or negate the possibility of my ever receiving the payment promised for my participation in this project. Given that consideration, maybe we should make him stand in front of the saxophonist all evening too. Regards, Ron N
