Dear Luters,
Do any of you lute or guitar teachers specialize in Suzuki techniques?
The reason I ask is that I have a number of small children in my guitar
studio, and I'm looking at some of the features of Suzuki teaching, and
wondering whether some of these young beginners could benefit from
Actually, it's more complicated. Asbestos is not a mineral as such. It's a
particular form ("habit" in mineralogist's lingo) that certain minerals can
take (i.e., elongated to the point that it becomes a fiber). Strictly, it's
"asbestiform minerals". The different forms of asbestos have varying

correspond. His diagram is reproduced in Michael Morrow's article,
