Sean Smith Sat, 08 Jan 2000 21:53:13 -0800 ---------- Howdy Scott, In my 20+ years of lute playing I've been a waiter, hotel clerk, Engilsh teacher (in Japan), and lately I polish lenses and mirrors for industry, space and sidewalk astronomy. At about 5 years each I guess I'm due for a change but the only constant has been my love of Renaissance lute. And there ain't nothing lowly about whatever job you hold if it gets you money for strings. Keep on pluckin, Sean
