Looks like I'm being called upon ... unwillingly she gets dragged in 
by the hair :-)

Yip - I've had the formal classical training and yip, I wince if things 
are out of tune / flat / sharp / mismatched.  I do not believe this is 
in any way related to my musical upbringing or background though.

Tully, my husband, owns a studio, is a sound engineer / composer 
& producer - has perfect pitch - and cannot read a note of music 
and never had a formal lesson in his life.  And it physically hurts 
him if things are off key.  I've seen him screw up his eyes and rush 
to switch music off.

Look - basically I don't give two fuxx what floats your boat - I'll 
ignore music that I dislike but won't stop anybody else from 
enjoying it if they're happy with it.  No reason to hang ignorance on 
a flag though.

Can we get this over with now ?
