Paul, I stopped saying "Northumbies" as advised, and my piping still sounds the same. Is there a time lapse for the improvement to take effect?

Illinois was all corn and red barns last time I was there -- but there is a tried and tested way to improve your piping 500% at a stroke, for zero effort. All you have to do is stop referring to the NSP as "Northumbies". Try it - you'll notice the improvement instantly! ;-) Cheers, Paul Gretton -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
