ONE OF THOSE DAYS

[David Porritt]

Jesse:

 

Just for clarification, there is no list police.  These lists are all self
policing by list members like the reminder you got earlier today.

Hey Terry, first of all, if my views are not suitable for this list, then
the police guy will let me know - -and so far he hasn't. Secondly, I've used
that term "it's cruelty to children" with many of my customers, in
describing making them play on the terrible piano, but they all understood
that I meant it in a very loose sense, and they all took my advice by either
not putting any money into the piano or by letting me help them buy another
one. I guarantee that if YOU (or any other technician) ever tell any one of
your customers that by making his child play on such a piano it is like
cruelty to children, he will NOT take offense, or try to punch you out, or
throw you out of his house. He'll just appreciate that he's been given a
very clear idea of how bad the piano is and how damaging it will be to his
child's sense of music. By the way, if you want a really GOOD use for the
word "vile," just take a look at some of the pianos out there, and also at
the disrespect with which many of us are treated!
