Some details on a moderated pianotech

[Richard Brekne]

LIke I said Bill.

I dont really see any down sides to this suggestion.  I certainly dont 
see it as a negative thing to meet the obviously significant number of 
irritated subscribers half way on this, and I dont think it will be all 
that much work to manage a <<shawdow list>>
as it were.  And if in the end it doesnt work... or we dont get enough 
volunteers... then well no harm has been done as nothing really has 
changed from pianotech to begin with.

Nothing is perfect of course... and there will always be some problems 
or discussion about how things should be.  But I think the idea is sound 
and worth a shot.
