Well, since you were lying about trying to take the high road, and adding in
your Big Dog approach to trumpet credentials, it really fit. Corps is not
the high road in music, either.

He was a franchise operation across the country, to be specific. Many Bozos
in the heyday. In spirit, he'll always be with you.

I notice you didn't answer the question about the record for being ABD.
Strange you chose not to continue the performance Masters on to the terminus
and switched to Pedagogy at a different school. Moved so the breadwinner
could upgrade her job? Or maybe you just didn't make the cut?

Have them write me, Al, I'll be happy to fill them in on some of your
previous rantings (in private, Al isn't nearly as nice). If you recall, my
differences with you always start over the physics involved and your
propensity for pure fantasy (like this round started by the mystic "trumpets
remember the sound of the player and slowly change when a new player uses
it" that you repeated and blessed); when physics is involved you get testy.
Are you still using O-rings to help adjust the bottom caps tension??!!

BS Physics, Harvey Mudd College; MS Engineering, Loyola Marymount U. are my
science and engineering degrees. And as for music and trumpeting, how does
one classify two years of weekly study as a student of Jimmy Stamp and a
couple of academic years of fairly regular lessons with Mario Guarneri?

Now, Albert, what was your science background? Any classes in logic? Physics
beyond a freshman year science requirement (perhaps the watered down
math-lite version for the mathematically challenged)?

Even your friends on the "other" list have told me you have real problems
with your temper, Al. You're "projecting".

PS I'll be happy to air your dirty laundry in public as long as you want,
Al.
