Re: [Harp-L] looking for a new home...



Thanks for your reply, Joe.  The forum is still available (to some) although the site is down.  I never really liked the diatonic and chromatic forums being separated like that - a strange brand of segregation. 
 
I did challenge the owner - that's the rule I broke, but I thought that the topic was as much a chromatic topic as a diatonic topic.  When I try to log in I get the message,  'Wants to go all suckharp'.
 
I'm not familiar with the 'camel in the tent' fable' but I will look it up.

How did that happen? Slidemeister has been offline for several weeks?

Getting a diatonic sound on a chromatic IS allowed in the diatonic section.

I like to call that....... wrong. Did the list owner give any explanation? The list owner doesn't like to be challenged.

It all comes down to the 'Camel in the tent' fable.

It IS allowed here. If it's harmonica centric, it's allowed.

Attachments (per se) are not allowed but URLs ARE.
