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.

How can you say that, when I'm being so supportive?

Indeed you are. :) :love:

It was just a humorously rueful quip on my part, keeping some kind of ball rolling as The Nebbish, is all. Ah well. Looks like that was a fail, too. I'll give it a break. I have slush to shovel (yay...), whiskey to buy (yay!), and eggcrate foam to shop for (don't ask). Signing off. :wink:

What did you say?
I respect people's privilege to hold their beliefs, whatever those may be (within reason), but respect the beliefs themselves? You gotta be kidding!

Jon c:

Thanks for the notes from Peter. Sorry that I used the word "resins" as I was simply trying to ensure that someone ... and Lord knows they lay in wait .. would not correct me if I would have said only Amber (which is what I wanted to say exclusively) and they'd jump all over it to say something hateful, etc etc.

Anyway, apologies to Peter. Didn't mean to insinuate any cheapening of his work at all. He's does some very fine stuff.

dm

ps....btw....."amber" is defined as a "fossilized tree resin."
for what it's worth.
