I put never though the truth would be very very rarely which wasn't an option. I stopped reading it regularly when the feeling of déjà vu got too overpowering.

Yep. Always look in.

I post more in the Trad String forum because mandolin is my current obsession.

Also, I found the nickel Feadogs to be a cheap cure for WhOA, so I no longer ask about other models!

I thought it only fair to go have a peek to see if my comments still held true. Yep. Same old same old.

Well, it's really like this:
When I first had a kid I read everything I could get my hands on that had to do with babies, from several subscription mags to every leaflet that came with every free sample they handed out at the hospital. And I bought books.

By the time I got to the third kid I would look at the table of contents in the latest issue of Parenting and realize I'd read every article in there, in some guise, at least 3 times.

I react similarly to the whistle forum, but I check it out now and then.

Seeing as I'm a Whistle newb still waiting for his first Whistle to arrive, this is where I get my dose of Whistle-info :thumbsup:

When I do log on here (which as of late hasn't been too much...), I do go to the Whistle board each time just to see what's up. I rarely find a time that I need to comment, because other, far more capable whistlers have usually already replied. But I will say that I learn quite a bit from being there, even after being a part of C&F for as long as I have.

I noticed something interesting there a few weeks back. Some newbies only seem to talk amongst themselves and don't acknowledge anyone with over 1000 posts.

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

I voted - truthfully, too - but of course it doesn't count. Just wanted to skew the poll results. :wink:

The Pub, the flute forum, Trad forum, then maybe the whistle forum, more interested in the flute forum since that is what I play the most now.

I mostly visit the flute forum, but I visit the whistle forum too. I don't play my whistle much anymore, and sometimes I just don't quite understand all the anxiety over make the "correct" purchase decision for a $10 instrument.

The only forum I cannot quite understand is the flanges and dental hygiene forum. What the ???

I spend probably 90% of my time in the flute board, but I do check the whistle board once a week or so.

While the board started with the whistle forum, I found the board because I wanted a real Irish flute as opposed to my home made PVC and bamboo flutes I was playing originally.

Me too. No one has yet satisfactorily provided the answer to which low whistle I should obtain. I've been on pins and needles since November 3 2003. But it's coming. I can feel it.
You're a 'ghost', like me. So, it's Copeland lowD for you. ;)
