greg,

To combat the noise, go rent an accordian and the next time they meet, start palying as loud as possible while singing some obscure hymn. As they start leaving to escape the sounds, ask them if they do not appreciate hearing the Gospel Accordian to Greg.

Oh yes, one more thing...you don't have to actually know how to play the, er, instrument...I mean...it all sounds the same if you are an accordian master or a first-timer! (I hope Carol C, the Sailor doesn't read this!) ;~>

And, yes, like Joe Offer says, Everybody needs Brother Ragmuffin!
