Apologies for not editing the subject earlier but I have to note that the
people who were getting cranky about subjects not reading "NHR" didn't
change it themselves either.

I did remark about musicians being riflemen, do you consider us Hornists not to
be musicians, Martin? When I attended my son's graduation from recruit training
the Parris Island Bandsmen used Horns, not the bastardized Mellophones.

Please folks-- don't forget to use the "NHR" in your post.
If I want to know more about the history of the U.S. Marines, I'll
search for it-- but not on this forum.
Thanks!

Very able analyses so far, with creative thoughts for acts of
retribution designed to eliminate repetition of the untoward event.
It would be instructional to build an anecdotal record of such

player while the instrument is on the chops, is a serious, serious thing." -
you can't do it and people who do have be taught in the strongest possible
terms that it's not acceptable, you've got to be more careful.

Hello Lawrence,
I concur with your approach with the following small modification:
Smack him in the mouth-- twice.
Once for payback, the second time for education.
Shouldn't be a problem after that.

Whenever this happens, try to keep your cool - don't resort to bad language

Sorry, I should have written more precisely: pure theoretical
