Just a thought - maybe he is one of us? The Phantom Lurker? I was going to write to him and the guy who wrote the article, but thought better of it. We reap what we sow. It's not the first time I've had quotation remarks around comments I never made. Seems to be the way reporters work.

With such things, it's hard to tell how much misinformation can be attributed to Kohut or to the article's author. It's not uncommon for me to be misquoted. ...Although the MacKillop quote seems pretty damning. This guy is evidently a paddler too, his e-mail involving kayak. I'll look

Completely bizarre. Interesting that Scottish lute is making a comeback according to the article. I was in London last weekend and friends in the record business told me that sales of traditional Irish and Scottish CDs are falling and have been for some time. On Apr 16, 2008, at 11:28

Sales of physical CDs have been falling across the genres for ages, partly due to iTunes et al. The folk scene as a whole seems pretty healthy to me, but lutes do not form a normal part of it. SK Doc Rossi wrote: Completely bizarre. Interesting that Scottish lute is making a comeback
