RE: [Hornlist]. Conductor's. Was Confusing transposition

Most conductors probably have very high resistivity.  Making it very hard
for them to conduct even electricity.  Though they might make good
insulators.

Ah yes, Scott. To be young and still think that most conductors are
infallable and that they are god... 

Sorry to burst your bubble, but I can tell stories and I don't play at the
level that Hans and others on this forum have worked. I personally have
worked under conductors that in some cases were totally clueless. 

Some of our colleagues on this list in the Metropolitan area where I reside
(the name of the community shall remain nameless to protect the innocent,
lol) know of a certain conductor that if you watched him, you were sure to
get lost when he conducted a piece in three that really was in four. I am
not joking!

He also liked to play John Williams' music at a VERY slow tempo. I have said
he couldn't conduct his way out of a paper bag. 

Now that my colleagues from my area are hopefully chuckling, I withdraw
probably to be flamed.

My question is how do you know they cannot conduct electricity unless you
try... hard.

A crooked key is a device that can be found in the pockets of common criminals

Hey Guys,
 
It might be interesting to discuss some of these health issues here on the 
list.   
Since I have a condition that pushed my retirement up a little, knowing about 
how other systems in the world work might be helpful to all of us.
 
Up to you guys though
