I feel my comments need clarification,

which sounds like my remark
drones, like the nuclear force which binds
everything together, might, if mishandled, lead to some
Chernobyl-type
musical meltdown scenario.
We do not disagree. I suspect from other of your postings that we also
converge on the dilemma that, as fiddlers, we know, on a near
instinctive level, how to use our bow arm to play with whatever degree
of lilt we wish, but as drone addicts, we experience the difficulty of
transferring this to the pipes.
