My knowledge is broad and shallow, but deepened considerably by continued participation in Mudcat. I love just about any kind of music, but lately I'm more interested in "mountain music" or "Appalachian" -- I guess because I sense that that's more my roots music than Celtic, and because I'm not even certain what Celtic is anymore. I've built my CD library slowly over the past three years I've been here, to the degree that I have a pink sticky on my computer that says "DON'T YOU DARE BUY ANOTHER CD!!!" because there's a big difference between hitting the "one-click" button and actually paying the frickin' Visa bill.

I also read many more threads than I post to, so just because there aren't a lot of posters to a "deep" thread, don't assume that it's being wasted or that the discussion is only among a handful of you. Just imagine you're at a party, sitting on the sofa talking to each other, but there are bunches of us eavesdropping all around you.

Attentively, WW
