Dear List,=20
After replying a couple of days ago to a posting by Roger Jolly that I =
thought was particularly praise-worthy, I received this response. =

Hi Stan,=20
I think you might find some pianos at a certain store less than well =
prepped.=20
*shhhhh* ok?=20
There is a lot of Lip servicing going on.=20

What I find particularly disturbing about this response is not =
necessarily=20
the idea that someone doesn't agree with Roger on what HE says that HE =
does=20
in his own store, but that the person who wrote the above message did =
so=20
anonymously, using a web address that guarantees anonymity, and is =
therefore=20
able to spread whatever brand of poison he/she wants to spread without =
being=20
accountable for it. This is unacceptable and cowardly. There have =
been many=20
disagreements on this List, heaven knows, but the participants were =
all=20
willing to identify themselves and put their opinions on the line. On =
an=20
open list such as this, that is not only expected, but may be =
desirable in=20
the long run. (And yes, I'm well aware of the feelings generated by=20
such...er...discussions!) =20
I have been mostly a List-lurker for the past three years or more, but =
chime=20
in occasionally when I believe I have something to offer, or when I =
feel it=20
necessary to respond to something. This is one of those occasions--I =
do not=20
personally know Roger Jolly, but having watched his contributions to =
this=20
List over a period of time, I have no doubt but what I would LIKE to =
know=20
Roger Jolly, and I have no reason whatever to doubt him when he says =
what his=20
store policy is. As Newton has said upon occasion, "Perfection is a =
moving=20
target, and one does what one can with what one has available at the =
time." =20
I couldn't agree more.....we try, and that is what Roger seems to be =
doing at=20
all times.=20
So........to the person who sent me this message........if you have =
something=20
to say, say it. We don't always agree, we don't always HAVE to agree, =
but I=20
abhor such behind-the-back, underhanded tactics as this, and I will =
not=20
suffer it quietly. If you have an overabundance of vitriol, then find =
an=20
outlet, but do it honorably, at least.......IDENTIFY YOURSELF and take =
such=20
slings and arrows as may come your way!=20
