Might as well try another post...

There seems to be a sudden interest in the tunes on my website, which is
interestig considering how long they've been there.  Dana, I appreciate
your enthusiasm, but I hope my tunes are different enough from M. Vrod's
wonderful tune, which I've never heard before viewing this video, so as
not to be mistaken.

I don't write many tunes, and when I come up with something I like, I'm
always paranoid that what I've written is in fact something that I've
heard somewhere and has found its way forward in my brain.  I always ask a
number of people if it sounds familiar.

There's only 12 notes in our musical scale, there's bound to be some
similar-sounding tunes around...
