%% Aaron Moore lives in
%% Seattle, WA, one of the great West Coast contradance centers.
%% Aaron always makes me feel good when I'm out there playing
%% for a dance by telling me to play louder. "Piano's not loud enough,"
%% he says. Well, I'm trying to, Aaron, I'm trying to. But thanks anyway;
%% I'm glad you like my playing - I hope you like your tune, old friend.
