The brief history of harp-l does contain some errors so don't take it as 
gospel.  Suffice it to say that without Chris Pierce none of this would 
exist.  This being harp-l.  Sure some other venue would have filled the 
niche but it would have been different.  Harp-l is unique amongst 
internet lists.  The culture of the list and the networking it has 
sponsored have changed the harmonica world as I knew it.  Most of how 
harp-l is and how it is run is a direct extension of either Chris or 
Hugh.  That a college student at Western Kentucky University thought to 
create an internet list for harmonicas pre world wide web, pre browsers 
is as amazing as the fact that harp-l has survived these 15 years.  fjm
