Not me--I like high humidity too much--and it's a joy to live in Sinus =
Gulch--in the Mississippi Valley!
Joy!

  On NPR several weeks ago they interviewed a member of the Baghdad =
Symphony Orchestra. It appears that even during the time of suppression =
under Hussein, classical music was being played and listened to. This =
got me to thinking. How wonder many pianos there are in Baghdad, and if =
there is a need for piano tuner/technicians? Any one want to volunteer =
to go over there after the war is over and set up shop?
