Don't you think this is unnecessarily mean? Arto has done quite much for the lute community and I would certainly prefer if we act like civilized middle europeans.
I would like to thank Arto for many interesting discussions, valuable input and information and hope he will calm down and return to the list. BTW: I'm sure Arto doesn't want to generalize and tell the US and every american guilty for the crimes in iraq or elsewhere. That would be naiv. I rather think "old europe" (that country near to iraq, lybia and cuba) feels helpless regarding the politics of the Bush administration and many europeans - like Arto, too - don't know to whom political speach should be adressed. In Finland (or germany) it's told to be a matter of american politics but the people feel involved - the attack in Madrid has proven that it really is an international affair. But to return into lute world: Is there someone interested in proof-reading a transcription of Sixt Kargel into french tabulature (actually I'm copying his german tab at the moment and then use Fronimo to do the transcription for me - but it's hard not to get lost in long runs :-)). The results will then be published on my homepage and on Francescos Fronimo page.

For some years I've been suspecting that this notion referred to what I inferred was Arto's prerogative ('bout a month or so ago, in Finnish....). RT ______________ Roman M.
