Hi Alice.
It looks very nice, but I can't find any information about the maker, Chuck Foster. Do you have any references for him and his work?

Hi, folks. I was hoping that someone on this list had been loooking for a really good vielle, and since Craigslist has not gotten any bites on this, I thought I would send the address of the website so that you could see it.

Obviously, I would have to ship it, regardless of what the text might say.
Cheers,

My anger is not directed at the general membership, who I consider to be my friends, but to those people who make copies instead of doing the decent thing and paying. I see there has been no response agreeing or denying my opinion, but my overall impression is that I am right in my assumption and that my anger and disappointment are justified, By being so mean and dishonest they have prevented the next generation from having use of the book which they have found so useful. As the book has been available up to now there was no need to steal it unless, of course, they can't afford an instrument. While I hope you will all enjoy the forthcoming `festival I also hope that these people will be discomfited and sleep badly. As you are on scene perhaps you would enlighten me.
Thanks,
Michael

Hi, Michael!

I can only speak for myself, but I purchased a copy of your Hurdy- Gurdy
Method (3rd edition) and the supplement CD. If you came out with a new
edition, I would certainly buy it.

I appreciate the work you and Doreen put into writing and revising such
fine instructional material for our exotic instruments!

Very best regards,

-Gary P. (in rural northern Illinois near Marengo, between Elgin and
Rockford IL)

Michael,

Maybe one thing to consider is actually going to digital publication. I know that that sounds like it would be playing right into the problem you identify, but you could line up a publisher that would indelibly watermark the copies sold. Each page would have "This copy licensed to Joe Schmoe" on it and if anyone else has a copy with that, you would know who "leaked" the copy.

OK Michael,
You want someone to weigh in on this? The general letter was scathing and caused me to wonder if you are doing alright. I have never seen even one customer made copy of your book or made one myself though we are down to our last copy. Sure it is not fair when someone takes what is not theirs. I would contend that we as a whole are not that kind of people but we had to read your venting too. Why not just remind people where to get the book and then have them when we want them. I have bought many of them and resold them for you here in the states at full price as a courtesy to our customers. Now we just tell people to order it on the net. Some of them have told us that they cannot get a hold of you.
Isn't it better to build bridges than walls?
Mel

Yes Michael, I also bought a copy off the book from you plus the CD. It
may be a case that some people were unaware it was still in print and
could still buy it. I hope that was the reason anyway.
