Dear Paolo,
Sorry for the delay in my reply. Your email came at a very busy time
and I did not get a chance to read all of it.
I do appreciate the posting of your research on the Mozart effect.
It shows that you have spent considerable time to come up with the
information on studies. It was interesting to me because I had heard
that baroque music in general had a positive effect on learning but
then I had not seen any scientific studies to test this and Mozart
was not a composer of the baroque era. Have you heard anything
about this?
Grazie ancora,
Marion

Subject: Re: Arto, USA, and Michelagnolo (was:VERY OFF TOPIC: POLITICS - don
Days ago I wrote an e-mail about the Mozart eccet on this list, collecting some
relevant abstract on the subject; follow-up answers? None.
Arto two days ago wrote an off-topic letter about Bush et al. Follow-up: three
or more answers so far.
Conclusion: just a little disappointment.

Dear G=F6ran,
I will not get into the discussion myself although, as most of you, have my
own views and opinions.
In the past, I told Arto and some of the other members what I think about
posting this sort of messages to the list.
What I personally find to be quite an error, is that you don't follow your
own advise (...This is precisely why I have always abstained from trying to
propagate religious or political views on this list. We've seen where it
leads to. It can't be said enough times. There are heaps and heaps of lists,
where people can discuss political or religious matters to their hearts
content. There are very few lists, where lovers of the lute are able to do
the same. Do you want to pollute it?...) and you tell Arto that he shouldn't
do something that you've done yourself extensively, and all in the same email.
Your opinions are also as political (whether we-you like it-them or not) and
one sided as Arto's, and in strict terms also out of place in this list,
according to what you think (and I) it is conceived for.
For many years I've been participating in political debates, writing in
magazines and discussion groups. I'd be happy to provide information about
all these to any of you, if exists the necessity of expressing and sharing
thoughts with other individuals about all that sort of items.
Here and now, my humble opinion is that I'm happy writing and reading about
lutes and lute music here, and uncomfortable with either Arto's of anyone
else's political messages.
In the past I made the mistake of getting into the arguments taking place on
the list, and I regret.
Please, excuse my English, and keep in mind that I might not be aware of the
courtesy formula for this kind of things.
Regards,
a
