Considering the budget the show was operating under, I doubt that he
could request they obtain such an expensive piano to be what is, in
essence, an incidental prop. If it is, indeed, a Steinway, I'd think
it was damaged in some way and therefore of little value.

I wish they'd taken the time to tune the danged thing when it had to
be played---when Nick played Fur Elise it sounded like it hadn't been
tuned in over a year. Ouch.

I've always loved that saying-- I especially resort to it to
explain certain election results.
What I imagine LaCroix would say however, is the old-fashioned
"Never underestimate the power of human stupidity".

Hey Cindy, I was just looking at the site, and there's nothing there
about it.  Was there a link in that package?

Subject: Site update...

I kind of updated my site.
I added mp3s to my stories "After All" and "Memories".
Also, I put a test page up for what I plan to do on my new site
(hopefully going live in Dec).  I could only do one page updated like
this on tripod due to space.  It is the second "Memories" link.
Let me know what you think.

My apologies...
The link for the 'after all' mp3 works, but apparently due to space
tripod cut most of it off.  I can't wait to get my new site up and
running - more room!!!!
So just focus on "Memories" for now
