Sorry Midchuck, but I assure you I wasn't joking. There are probably thousands of sites I haven't yet discovered, and as I mentioned in the 'vanishing Guest' thread, I don't have as much access to computers as some. Aside from that, I much prefer the conversational tone of Mudcat to anything else I've discovered musically on the net. Plus there's a kind of 'please and thank you' around here that I don't find at the psychology sites I also visit.

So much information! If tortoiseshell is illegal, how do you get it? Is it really that much better? Thanks all.
