Peter Timmerman Why live music? (69* d) RE: Why live music? 18 Aug 97


This has nothing to do with music, but the last note and Bill's somehow came together and reminded me of the great story of the anthropologist who went out to one of the offshore islands of Ireland sometime around the turn of the century, and he was rowed around the islands by an old fisherman. It happened that at one point they stopped for the night on one of the shores, and in the morning the anthropologist was shaving himself with a shaving mirror; and the fisherman asked him what he was looking at so intently; and the anthropologist suddenly realized that these people had never seen a mirror. So he gave the mirror to the fisherman, who looked into it; and after a second the fisherman's eyes filled with tears, and he said, "Oh, Papa".
