Subject: RE: England's National Musical-Instrument?
Woody, what to do about it FROM NOW ON - re-education on many levels; the linking of English folk to English nationalism

WAV I was disappointed with your response. As I'm taking the time to try to understand the extent of what you're trying to say, perhaps you'll please do me the courtesy of actually answering my questions properly, with some of the attention and level of detail you must have shown to acquire your degree.

(1) - what you're saying is that in England we should only perform "good English music"?

(2) - If the answer to (1) is yes, does that mean that you think we should take some kind of action to preserve the purity of the English music that exists - as alluded to in your perform your own rule?

(3) - If the answer to both 1 & 2 is yes, what methods would you propose would be used to achieve and enforce this?

(4) - Given your documented attempts to live a more "authentic" English existence (pottage etc) do you think that there should be a wider effort to revive this English culture?
