Slightly off-thread, may I pick Kat up on her initial posting, where she uses "non-progressive" as a pejorative term: Surely, in a forum devoted to folk music (amongst other things), non-progressive should be a term of approbation, 'cos if folk's progressive (imho) folk it ain't.

With my tongue only slightly in my cheek, I propose that all "progress" (ie all change) should be resisted -- if it can't survive my opposition, it doesn't deserve to survive at all; if it's worthwhile, it'll come despite my opposition.
