“I don't take Donny's turn about as being insincere. I think he goes into it with optimism, really trying to like it. On the other hand, when he makes a decision to dump it, he does so with the same flair and honesty.”

This subject is not about being sincere, optimism or honesty, it is about responsibility. I like Donny he is a alright guy with good talent, I am not trying to make him less in any way, but when someone expresses his views; opinions that might effects another’s decision, he has taken at advantage of what Nigel has created, this forum. I believe, at least for me, that when I enter into this forum that I should govern myself with certain guide lines; one of those guidelines is responsibility.

I hate when others use topics to bash another member, even if their posts are laced with clever wording there no missing their intent. I like Donny with all his ways but I can also hate something that he might do; As a man I find him solid; as a musician I feel HE IS GOOD.

My comments are not directed against him, they are directed the subject being discussed. If we were to decide the value of a man and his ways by what he may have done wrong in our eyes we set ourselves up to be judged by the same criteria; then not one of us would be worth very much – and so ends friendship and getting along.

He told me how great the Korg Micro Arranger is -- so now tell me why it does not fit his needs. What I am asking for the rest of the story.

Sorry if I went on too long, John C.
