Good morning, all! I did not head down to Toyland this morning. I must get there on Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on the super's finishing up the ceiling. I am hoping he will be here tomorrow, as he said.
Today I must deal with the ROBERTA liner notes and trim the wordy excesses of the notes from the Man From Philadelphia. I sent him a first draft on the reconstruction of the score that was 3327 words long. His "edit" was 3341 words. I re-edited the piece, got it to 3266 words, and his "edit" came back last night at 3448 words! Now, I'm not paying the recording bills, but I cannot wait till the yelling begins about keeping word counts down for the recording booklet!
Last Friday, I sent DR Benan email about his current status, and he wrote back:
I'm just swamped at work and I had a tooth pulled a couple of days ago. I'll be around very soon.
Instead of all the speculating, one could easily contact him. That said, i am concerned about DR Dan M.
