[pianotech] a new one for me

[Greg Newell]

James,
	Once when I was quite a bit younger and working at a service station
I was robbed at gun point. The police asked me to take a polygraph. I too
was nervous. I failed the polygraph because of it and they tried for quite a
while to get me to confess to something I didn't do rather than act on my
information and try to catch the real perps. I would suggest not taking the
polygraph. Your call.

On the way home this afternoon I was called by a St. Louis detective on my 
cell phone.  .  It seems a tuning customer of mine from last week had 
reported a watch stolen from his loft condo.  I was there about 2 hours 
doing some repair  and tuning.  I have never met this client face to face. 
Always, someone else meets me there to let me in and they disappear till I 
am finished.  Anyway, the detective asked if I would take a polygraph test 
next Wednesday to "clear" myself from this deed/  I was caught totally 
unaware on this one.  Obviously, I know nothing of what was stolen or even 
if something was stolen.  I was only at his piano and the bathroom while I 
was there.  I am very nervous anyway and this has really caught me in 
surprise that after 47 years this has never happened to me before.
Has anything like this happened to any of you?
