I agree, Ed, it's nice when people respond with thanks.

I don't see much response usually after I DO answer, but then, I wasn't doing for the thanks. Therefore I haven't worried about it.

What I do like is as others have mentioned the learning about other aspects of a song. There was one recently about Congo River that was a real eye-opener. The various threads about the Water is Wide, or Carrick Fergus have exposed a lot of information.

These responses are excellent. People with the knowledge that Bruce O, Lesley, and Joe Offer have given us is certainly special.

Thanks to ALL contributors, however small.

When I first came to DT, it was still at Xerox. I lost touch until it was established here at Mudcat. Since then, with the Message Forum(s) we have timely additions to the knowledge base.
