Right on Ron. I think that when you consider the wages of 40- 50 years ago, and relate it to the price of gas. We were getting a really good deal. I think the wages have risen, relatively more than the gas. Mind you, I am not looking forward to my gas bill, when I drive out to the convention in Cal. Coast to coast as they say. I haven't seen any information on a Pianotech meeting at the convention. I sure hope they have one this year. I enjoyed puting faces to the names. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron Nossaman" <rnossaman at cox.net> To: "Pianotech List" <pianotech at ptg.org> Sent: Friday, May 16, 2008 6:56 PM Subject: Re: Gas I gasped! > >> I agree it’s a good thing to do.
