One Phil Ford wrote... Since you seem to be on intimate terms with them, please do ask them. While you're at it, could you ask him about his sons? I see that they figure in the name, but I don't see anything about them on the website or in the company propaganda. I had assumed that they were conveniently available as silent partners to give the name that cachet of Steinway & SONS (who in every other way they are critical of). But perhaps I'm just being cynical. If you want to build your own piano, more power to you. Anybody who undertakes that endeavor has my admiration. If you want to make it unconventional, so much the better. The piano world could use the diversity. Just spare me the Madison avenue treatment, telling me that you are Mohammed come down from the mountain to save me. _________________________________ Being cynical would be a rather overly polite way to put it. You seem quite willing to condemn this fellow for just about every thing he stands for. No doubt you are privy to information about his person that gives you the right. Strange that you should on the other hand offer so much support for the other Aussie designer. His action is not much more then a modifed Langer from 1905 or so. Whats good for the Gander is good for the Gandee where I come from. Why dont you give it a break. You dont know Mr Stuart from Bo diddly and yet you accuse him of all manner of nastyness.
