"So nice of you, Roger, to decide when my time is wasted. When I am older? Man, you are babbling. You have no idea about me, you know nothing about me. And you tell me 'when I am older I have less time'?

"HS-TO, What contradiction? To me, i.e. IMO, the harpsichord died out just after the

Hey Erwin, glad to hear from you! I enjoyed your music that I have heard and I look forward to hearing more from you. Thanks.
I greatly enjoyed our recent conversation, about Holland, Europe, languages, etc.
Your English is quite good, and I found are talk both interesting and entertaining.
Thanks.
