Sparky came up with an interesting comment when he talked about what to do when you get music files that you really don't care for. Do you thank the person for sending songs you don't want to listen to, or thank them for the time they've put into the production, or do you just keep quiet and hope that enough folks send in emails so you won't have to and maybe escape unnoticed? What a dilema. I'm afraid that most of us will fall into the last catagory, and I do it myself. But then, I also do like Tony does, and file the songs away until I get time to listen to them. Usually, by that time I can't remember who sent what, or when. Another dilema! My instinctive response is to go bury my head in the sand somewhere and leave the contributor wondering where everyone went because there are probably many more like me. I guess it's just a part of human nature, so I won't take it personal if you won't. It's too bad we don't have this huge site where everyone can send in their songs and music for anyone to download, no matter which model of Technics they have. Then we would only be responsible to email and thank those artists we downloaded. I would like to have the freedom to pick and choose, but that isn't an option at this time, and I don't want to be dropped from the list and maybe miss out on something that might move me....like the ragtime music sent in by Tom Cornish! I had a great time listening to your music, Tom and I would like to hear more, too. It's the style my grandmother used to play quite often, when she wasn't playing gospel, and I grew to love it. Brought back memories, you betcha!! Those are the triggers that make certain songs mean more that others, and it helps make the whole realm of music more enjoyable. And, guess who is the biggest factor in all of this....everyone here! What a great family to belong to. Thank you one and all!
