<<<< You drive a car, I assume, and it is a good bet that at least some of the oil you use came from a country that views women as property, girl children as expendable and practices slavery....do you think about this as you drive along the highway? Jim Bryant (FL)>>>> If you knew me, you'd know that sometimes I do. I do acknowledge that the Guild IS the most influential force in the piano tuning business. Even us non-members use A440 as our tuning standard. There was nothing accusatory in my question -it's just that I was curious..... Maybe even hoping for some "official" standard on which to compare / contrast / develop my own standards as to how to handle these issues. The world is getting smaller. The "little guy" will lose the ability to influence it for good in some ways, but gain influence in others. The world (including here at home) will continue to deteriorate if we simply accept everything. Where to draw the line???? I'm not sure; I was hoping you guys knew. - Joe G.
