Here is a good example of the incorrectness of the web. One can find many spellings of this: Bass Clef Base Cleff But really it is spelled Bass Clef. It is the F clef and is moveable down one line to Baritone clef. I would recommend MILDE Bassoon etudes. They are fabulous romantic works

I wonder if Starbucks' gift certificates would work as well as the real thing? Probably better. We can't anticipate how they take their coffee. I can just see the pilot saying this needs at least six more sugar packets. No way you're bringing that on the plane. - Original Message
