I don't believe I've ever had any real enemies. You have to work to make one, you know.

Schweik, the best way to deal with your enemies on the Internet is to ignore them completely. Mudcat needs people like you and me, who actually play music, understand it and share it. It already has enough squabblers, so you can feel free to leave their ranks.

I admit that not all the non-musicians are squabblers. Did you see the recent thread called "Cornish nightingale" where folks babbled on about the absence of nightingales in Cornwall? It spanned 15 years and did not contain a single line of poetry or make one reference to a melody.
