Howdy Folks,

My apologies to Angus for taking over your place at the top of the list since you deserve the credit for this great song circle. Scott, I have absolutely no idea how I got out of line up there. Too bad since my song was such a great follow-up to yours.

As long as I'm here, I think I'll pull out the fretted dulcimer tuned in DAC for an aeolian minor mode. The song I'll share with you comes from the writing of Pete Seeger and has a traditional (probably celtic) melody. It's "The Song of the World's Last Whale" and reminds us about conservation (which most of us need some reminders about at times). Since I don't see the words anywhere on DT, I'll post them per Dick's excellent request.

Allinkausay,
Bill
