[78-L] [Fwd: [88sOn78s] Winifred Christie on the Moor duplex piano]

Yes I remember, altho I no longer remember this fellow's name nor do I 
know if it really was his own name that he used on-list.

So I admit I am curious to hear what Mr. Haba did with quarter tone 
music, if for no other reason than being familiar with his name from the 
"discussion" on 78-L.

To my knowledge to this day that is the only time anyone has been banned 
from the list.
