What I meant to say is some people are so critical they can't see the forest for the trees. I was a greeing with your post s of last week. Obviously it didn't come across. I for one happen to make my living rebuilding SSSSSSStwys everday of the week. I also happen to be a fan of the pianos from the C.B.S years you described earlier save the actions. Some of the best boards are in those tainted years. I can't jump on the got an ax to grind with S & S band wagon. Doesn't mean I agree with every thing they do. But I do know from whence my bills are being paid. As to the type of in home/field service that your describing making huge and substantive improvements without gutting the whole thing unnecesarily is part of the business I too am fond of. The truth is some don't know when not to be critical and frankly I get tired of the S&S bashing that goes on. We can all have an honest opinion on what is expected from one small piano company, we can even have significant disagreements about there relationship to the technical community but where I part company is to say that there products are largely defective etc etc ad naseum. John I seem to have touched an accidental nerve and if I'd had the attitude you thought I did I'd be a bit miffed too. Believe me if you want to know where I stand just ask I'm not one to beat around the bush! Peace to you.>>>>>>>>>>>Dale>>>>>>>>>>> > > At 10:22 AM 08/05/02 -0400, Dale wrote: > > > Some don't know what there critical of. > > Dale > > Breaking out the logical fallacy of argumentum ad hominem already, Dale?
