Yes, I was.

I agree completely.  I hold ALL Styles of Music, all types of Musical
Instruments, and all Musicians in the Highest regard.

A concept that I have Always believed in.

But I do believe that some-to-many harp players do have an "Outcast"
mentality.  Whether they enjoy having it or not, I don't know.  But
the ones I know seem to thrive on the fact that they are the "Loners"
of the Musical world (that's part of what I was trying to say before).

Electronic mail is a great technological advance, but there is still a
LONG way to go when it comes to expressing Tone and Feeling through
it.
