He was an excellent instrument assembly unit, I mean, human instrument maker. Or so the queries of my data servers say. I mean, memory.

... and post #2. Have a question already - if I'd like to point people in the direction of some video resources about trombone technique would it be better to post here in "News" or in "Teaching"? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for continuing from where the old forum left off and helping this kind of communication still happen. I haven't had a need to post something until now so I'll let this serve as my first post as per the moderators' request. Post number 2 to follow shortly. Thanks!

Here's post number 2. I'm not sure if I hit submit when I wrote the other draft of this, so I'll give it another shot since the first post was already approved. If not, then I'll wait until tomorrow to try again.

Had to re-register my account here at the chat - I lurk more than I post, and apparently haven't logged in for over two years, since sometime before the server issues/migration that required accounts to be reset.

Okay, here's a first reply to establish I'm not a "bot." I'm a native Floridian who, because of some streak of insanity in my genetic heritage, has wound up in Iowa for 30+ years. I am not a fan of snow and ice. I gag at the taste of onions. I am struck by wonder and awe when I consider that, by standards of what I perceive to be an infinite "universe," I am a subatomic particle living on a speck of dust called Earth. All of which sounds human to me, although I cannot prove to myself with absolute certainty I am not kin to Data on Star Trek: The Next Generation.

And here's a second message to prove I'm some creation of perniciously artificial intelligence. I'm a husband, a dad, and a granddad. I write poetry in which rhyme pertains (I hope) to meaning, not usually to words. I'm a spiritual secularist in recovery from 41 years of Presbyterian ministry. In addition to trombone, I pretend to play the guitar and have been something of a folksinger/song-writer since the mid 1960s.

Matt K wrote: Sun Mar 25, 2018 8:16 am Hey all,

So I've gotten a few messages about the above two questions. For this weekend in particular, we wanted to make it easy to register so we relaxed the requirements for registration. As a consequence, that makes it easier for bots to register too. I've banned a number of them so far, as have a few other moderators but what keeps that from becoming evident is we have a two post minimum before your activity becomes public. I'm actually surprised at how well that has worked...

So in light of that, if you wish to participate without needing to make two more substantive posts, go ahead and reply to this message twice. Just make it substantive / specific enough that a bot wouldn't write it. That shouldn't be too hard as most of what the bots have written is something to the effect of:
Я обнаружил, что это действительно крутой угол Интернета, и вы должны присоединиться ко мне ниже по следующей ссылке, с которой я определенно не связан: www.mattkingsbury.com
(They weren't advertising for my site though ;) )
I enjoyed the post about Symphonys using/requiring same brand trombones.
