If all you had really wanted to say was: "when the economy turns down then 
musicians must also tighten their belts along with everyone else" then that 
simple statement is surely what you should have stuck to saying. That very 
simple declaration would have been just fine. However, it really did not 
seem to me that this is all you were claiming .. and I have referred back 
to your earlier posts and it still does not seem that way to me. I accept, 
however, that I could have totally misinterpreted you .... so ......

If what you want is an admission from me that I was very wrong in 
everything I said to you on this matter then you can have an immediate 
retraction.

Dear GA Moore I was completely wrong in everything I said earlier. The 
wealth of an economy does indeed "affect" both musicians and studios.

How you choose to interpret the word "affects" is entirely up to you.


I was very wrong in everything I said earlier about Mozart and Bach and 
economics and elastic and inelastic demand and anything and everything 
concerning those specific topics.

I am also very sorry to have crossed you ... I am very sorry to have 
questioned you ... and I will try very hard never again to cross or to 
question you on any other matter nor concerning anything you might have to say.

I hope it is enough for you that I have admitted to the error of my ways; 
that I have bowed down and admitted to certain misconceptions about 
economics and music; and I hope you will accept that I am very grateful to 
you for having corrected all my earlier misinformation and for having 
increased my knowledge.
