---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Joe, et al, Let me take this opportunity to make an announcement concerning one of the companies currently producing pianos in China. If you will visit <http://wymanpiano.com/care.html>http://wymanpiano.com/care.html , at the bottom of the page concerning care for the new Wyman Piano, is this statement: "Wyman Piano Company recognizes that to best protect your investment, use the services of a Registered Piano Technician (RPT) member of the Piano Technicians Guild. www.ptg.org" I understand that this statement will also be added to the next printing of warranty cards. A hearty "Thanks" to the folks at Wyman Piano Company. Tim Lasky and George Benson. This is a very good start, people. I, for one, truly appreciate the support that our organization has received from manufacturers from around the world.
