makes for a great list for the inagural class in the Harmonica Hall of 
Fame.  There will always be a couple of omissions (I could argue for 
including DeFord Bailey), but the inagural class should restricted to 
only the utmost pioneers/geniuses.  I mean the baseball hall of fame 
inagural class only had like 7 members (Wagner, Ruth, Cobb, Matthewson, 
and a few others), then they vote a few (or none) more in every year 
with very restrictive conditions (90% vote on all ballots??) by the 
baseball writers.  Well, there's not a harmonica writers guild unless 
you count harp-L....so what better group to establish a Harmonica Hall 
of Fame.  Now all we need is a nice brick building somewhere and a few 
brass plaques (unless some enterprising net person wants to host the 
virtual HHOF on their site :) :) ).

[who is proud to share his birthday with Elvis, Soupy Sales, Catherine 
the Great, and Larry Storch - 4 of my favorite people.  There used to be 
a website where you type in your birthday and it lists famous people 
born on that date - the url escapes me - but I doubt that Butterfield or 
Giordano are in their dB.  Also, in a room of 30 people (like SPAH Blues 
Jam) there's a >50:50 chance that 2 will have the same birthday.  Aren't 
you glad you asked?  :) :) ]
