New Baldwin

[Tom Servinsky]

Don,
The point is not whether or not to be a cheerleader or not, the point is 
that their are a lot of points being expressed on this list...some very 
insightful, some not, some with a lot of sarcasm, and some extremely 
dead-serious. My off-remark, admittedly, was laced with a lot of 
sarcasm....but who's to say what's appropriate and not appropriate for this 
list. Your insinuation that I'm a "piano basher" couldn't be further from 
the truth. You are getting your feathers ruffled because you don't agree 
with someone else's point of view. That's why I said "lighten up".
Judging by the wide array of subjects and candid remarks made on this list, 
mine was well within the norm for this list.
Case closed.
Tom Servinsky
