Roger-

The salad days of substantive harmonica discussion will return. Hang in there. I guess we're just reprouping after the crash. The regulars will be back.
Sometimes the banter is fun-do we have to be dead serious all the time? Flames are an unfortunate fact of life anywhere on the Net, it seems,
and a limited amount of self-promotion is tolerated. I think anyone who is a subscriber and puts out a new CD, book or video ought to announce it here, frankly.
It goes in cycles. People tend to talk about gear when nothing else is going on, and then someone will start the ball rolling. That's when you can learn a lot. I can't even begin to tell how much I've learned here. It's incredible.
