Thanks Valerie for the link. I am very slowly getting less nervous but I will 
carefully read the suggested information on EFT. 

Regarding the JoyKey, I have two on my horn. I had them installed about four 
months ago. I love them. I play in two bands, the horns never stop and finding 
time to dump water was a challenge. Now I can get through most, if not all, of 
a rehearsal or concert without dumping water. I only have two on my horn, where 
the water keys used to be, so they don't catch all the water but what they do 
catch is significant. All I have to do is spin my horn around to get the rest 
of it out. I have not pulled slides out of my horn, other than to apply valve 
oil or slide grease, since I got them. The one downside is that they do drip, 
very slowly, on my pants leg. A simple cloth on my leg, that most of us have 
anyway, solves that problem. 

Sincerely,
Tina
