Dear Arto, Don't worry, I would not say it was an insult; that's too strong a word. Rather, I was a bit disappointed that you chose what was the least imortant aspect as the focus of a comment. In any case, there is no offense taken. About the infamous, "S" do you mean "Snake" "Spider," or "Something (worse)?"
In the good old days, such as the 1500s, we had no internet, no computers, not even electricity. If you wanted music, you had to play an instrument, sing or both. We are all getting older but age has its advantages as well as its disadvantages. I would like to be 20 years younger but have as much experience as I will have 20 years from now.

Dear Marion and others, sorry, I did not mean to insult you, and not even RT! I understand the paper bag's linking to lutensts problems. And I understand also how the (in)famous "S" actually has something to do with lutes. "In the good old days" "all was better"... ;-) So perhaps my main message was only the last sentence: > Perhaps I am getting old? ;-) All the best Arto To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
