Hi Grandpa Doug, I read your letter though a few times, it does show wisdom in many areas. I without any exceptions accept your point of view on the different subjects.

Now I would like to express mine, which are not necessarly a contradition to yours.

I have no idea of Tim's age or maturity, but I felt just as he did when I recieved the Tyros. No, I would not have posted what I felt, but I can understand what Tim was felt. Should he have written what he did? Why not, it was what he was feeling. Was it an error??? Like in all things, we can fall or error on a subject, but as long as we learn and do not repeat, all is fine.
If I give that some thought, I think that's what God has said in His good book. When I try to understand the other persons reasons and emotions, I can trully give my opinion, rmembering it is only my opinion.

As to what is good for this forum, again this is my opinion, To be open and honest, giving your opinions with the sincere thought of helping the next person.

I would like to talk about the short commings
of my KN7000, without feeling I have done something. I would like the makers of my keyboard to know about what I feel. I would hope that it would possiblly have some influence.

I also feel it is healthy to talk about the good points, which there are so many. Never putting the product down, but talking about all aspect of the keyboard. I have some negative about my keyboard, who shall I talk to about them, if not here where?

I became angry easily, does that mean that I am not a good person. --- There are many parts of me, one is the anger, the others I could fill a page with. And so it goes with my fantastic Technics KN7000.

Wow, wouldn't the world be a boring place if we were all the same.

Granpa Doug I do appreciate you
and your posts, John C.
