Nobody's blaming you for anything, Ray. The only thing under attack
here is the idea that retuning a string or two by a semitone will harm
someone's instrument, a belief that does not seem to be founded in
reality. Nobody doubts that this belief exists -- that's why we are
complaining about it.

I didn't know why people seemed to be blaming me for reporting and
interpreting what string professionals told me on the subject. It
seems like people interested in writing and arranging music would
want to know, without shooting the messenger. This is an orchestra
known worldwide for playing new music (somewhat in remission now,
unfortunately), and not afraid of new techniques - check out the
recording of _Suite for Symphonic Strings_ by Lou Harrison, for
example, which has the cellos using guitar picks, etc., just for one
example that comes to mind.
