t, I've been out of the Scottish Primary school system for 5 years. From 
what I can gather cursive writing is no longer a curricular policy but many 
primary schools still give it some kind of priority. The problem being the 
High Schools don;t really give a shit, as long as it is legible, so why 
bother?

Re: Keith Emerson RIP

Then there's THIS!!!  Borrowed entirely from Al Forsyth's post at the 
blooey...
 

"It appears that for all his rock dinosaur image, he was the victim of a 
very modern fate — ‘trolled to death’ by heartless fans who had attacked 
him online over the quality of his recent music, even suggesting he gave 
up.[image: 
Emerson was one of the kings of progressive ¿prog¿ rock, an attempt by 
musicians to bring some credibility to rock in the late Sixties and early 
Seventies by injecting into it some of the features of classical music] 

*Emerson was one of the kings of progressive ‘prog’ rock, an attempt by 
musicians to bring some credibility to rock in the late Sixties and early 
Seventies by injecting into it some of the features of classical music*

In fact, he had been suffering for years from a debilitating muscular 
condition that affected the fingers in his right hand.

‘He read all the criticism online and was a sensitive soul,’ said his 
Japanese girlfriend, Mari Kawaguchi.

Although he had been planning to retire after a string of upcoming concerts 
in Japan, he was ‘tormented with worry’ that he wouldn’t be good enough, 
she said. ‘He didn’t want to let down his fans. He was a perfectionist and 
the thought he wouldn’t play perfectly made him depressed, nervous and 
anxious.’

It’s easy to believe that he could have been deeply troubled by the cruel 
barbs from fans. Not only did Emerson take his music very seriously — even 
if many others didn’t — but he was a deeply sensitive man who was far from 
the wild rock star that he appeared on stage."

Another rope-related suicide do 2 the pressure of spelling correctly...gr8. 
BTW, I want 2 say it's no longer a prob w/the new e-speak.

On a related topic, primary schools here in the US have quit teaching 
cursive writing. Are they still teaching it in UK and Canada, or is this a 
worldwide conspiracy?

This suicide was needless.  If all he was concerned with was how well he 
could still motor up and down the keys...he was too one dimentional to 
servive.  Somewhere along the way he should have 'got a life'.  Then ... 
maybe he's still have one.  A glorious opportunity not merely wasted...but 
disrespected and discarded.  So?  He ended up with no choice but do end it 
all...and EVERYBODY lost.

On the subject of being bad, am I alone in thinking that there's more than 
a ring of truth to Lee Jackson's words at the end of this version of 
Bernstein's America, at least in respect of Keith's last action... "America 
is pregnant with promise and anticipation, but is murdered by the hand of
