One Piano Per....??

[Barbara Richmond]

I vote with Phil.  There was someone with whom I teamed up with for a bit 
(against my better judgment and later, much to my regret) and I witnessed 
him making this type of call.  It was not well received and because he 
associated himself with me, I caught some flack.  What a nightmare.   I 
disassociated myself from him as quickly as possible, not only because of 
this, but because of some of his other dubious business practices (trickery, 
etc.).  I'm glad that episode of my life is <long> past.

Whew.

Barbara Richmond, RPT
