[Harp-L] I Speak for the Trees

[Derwood <derwood.blues@xxxxxxxxx>]

This is just an update to a conversation that has ending with it's many
children living on. I posted a reaction to what felt to me like elitism in
the content of many posts. I just wanted to add that I have received many
off list replies thanking me for saying what the replier never felt
comfortable saying. My goal in writing this is not to say look at me I was
right but to say to us all we need to respect each other and remember who is
listening. I am just as guilty in speaking against those who have more God
given talent than me and are much less lazy and actually practice. It makes
me feel better when I mock them for being elitist. I am doing exactly what I
criticize. I am sorry. I am w... wr... wr... wrong. There is room in this
ongoing discussion for everyone. Everyone deserves respect and honor even
Bob Dylan.
