Hello Folks,

I am reading letters of disklavierowners and I am very pleased to
to learn that there are so many very smart disklavierowners
who can do a far better job than the Yamahapeople
themselves. They could not make a better piano, 
but at least they know that the Mark 3 disklavier
could be approved a lot with today's technology.
My friends be assured that the Yamahapeople are aware
of it. It is very easy to talk and to criticize. I have
a very great respect for the Japanese brainpower and
an even much greater respect for the Japanese will
power. I am sure that they will find a solution.

Now another story. I was absolutely not aware of the
fact that several people know to play the piano very
well by memory. They would like to be able to read better,
but playing the piano without reading is no trouble for
them. 
Mr or Mrs I believe you, but sometimes I think
you are all lying and telling stories. Where is the
proof? Let us hear what you are able to do! Why are
you locking your piano for us.? We like to hear you and
we want to hear you. But you are closing your piano 
and your house for us. We are not welcome.
Why does Daniel Kebanov maintain such a beautiful
and easy accessible website? Well in order that you
would make use of it. We want to listen to you, 
but you are refusing to play for us. Why?

Clarita has not such a good memory, but she did what
she could do inspite of her osteo-arthritis and poor
memory.She has osteo-arthritis in her spine.
She has no more cartilage in her shoulders.
A kneecap was replaced two years ago and at this
moment she is in the hospital with a lot of pain,
recuperating from a succesful complete hipreplacement
surgery. 
But I assure you that, in spite of the arthritis, in spite
of the fact that she already  passed the age of eighty
and in spite of the fact that she is still active in 
her construction company, she will play the piano 
for you again, because the arthritis did not effect
her fingers yet, and because of the fact that, just 
like the Japanese, she has the willpower to do it. 

This is Ed, Clarita's husband, who is writing for Clarita.
