If I may interject a comment or three...
IMHO, the only *bad* tuba is one that is not being used. This is probably true about most instruments. Music does not come from the instrument, but the performer. If the player chooses to use a Yorkbrunner, or a St. Pete, it's his/her perogative. Each instrument has problems and challenges, which may mean that it may be necessary to look into a different instrument for you, but it can serve someone else quite well. This bbs gives a unique venue in which to buy and sell and swap and spin yarns and trade information. It's a fairly civil little place, and we look out for eachother when we can. With this in mind, I think it would be prudent for ALL of us to put our light sabers away and quit swinging at each other.
