[78-L] Billy Murray Tribute?!

[bruce78rpm at comcast.net]

I totally agree, but it is not my hatchet, I did not make that terse unnecessary comment. He made an accusation and I responded accordingly. As far as I am concerned the matter of the dueling comments is closed. Not the Billy Murray Tribute matter.

Bruce, 
Mr. Lennick has been a distinguished and most important member of this list 
for a long time . 
As you are a funeral expert, please bury that hatchet of yours. 
You don't earn your bones this way.
