i AM BACK. mY COOKIE IS BACK. aND THANKS FOR THE RESPONSES TO MY QUESTION. i NEVER OH dAMN! jUST BACK AND ALREADY SCREWING UP THE CAPSLOCK!

It never occurred to me that anyone would try to make commercial use of the recordings. In fact, I think it is wonderful to have "real" music from those we love/admire/revere/enjoy. Just wondering about the etiquette.

Charley - I have been carefully folding the packing paper and cartons from my move hoping to find someone who could make use of them. I will be thrilled to deliver them to Capt. Bunker at his leisure. I will PM my new phine number.

Finally, I have measured and re-measured the dimensions of my living room/dining room and believe we can fit a shanty swap in a little snugly but comfortably. Early January? Just bring some chairs. Captain and Mrs. Bunker can sit and sing through this one and even bring the parrot if he promises not to harm the kitties. There are even some spare beds for anyone needing a place to crash. Maybe we can entice some out-of-towners.
