How can I make my 1920's silver Selmer C-melody do a little growling and rumbling instead of only honking? I play in a hobby rock'n'roll band and the C-melody is perfect on Frankie Ford's "Sea Cruise" (sounds just like a fog horn) but sometimes I'd like a little more early 50's growl to it. Is that possible on this instrument?

Bruce - I seem to have missed something as well, a few days back there was a fresh posting on this topic (heading shows as a different colour), but when I checked mine was the last posting.........

Jim, they just have those big straight soprano's (in G ?) in Turkey...

Sorry about the confusion guys. On November 28th a poster named "Fall" posted one of those junk html messages selling something or the other. I deleted the November 28th message from Fall and put the post "Fall is gone" meaning that I had deleted Fall's post.

You are not going crazy, it is just me exercising admin control of the board.

Does your ISP have any filters you could activate? Any mail with attachments will be junk mail and be filtered out.

Jim , I wish it was as easy as filters, I'd lose lots of emails from genuine people who send me pictures as attachments.... Most junk mail I get doesn't have attachments, but is just formed in a way to make it difficult to set up a spam "rule" in the email client.

There is a good spam filter I'm considering, which emails back senders, asking them to "enter the numbers you see on the screen", like the system ebay now uses.

Once they reply (and this cuts out all the automated spammers) then their adress is added to an "OK" list, to which, of course, manual additions can be made to allow (e.g.) stuff like ebay correspondance thro...

But of course even that doesn't stop spammers getting into forums and guestbooks, that's a whole different issue. That's down to 'spot it and delete it", unless the forum has a logon procedure to defeat it/them - which this forum (nor my guestbook) doesn't....

Here endeth the first anti-spamming lesson !

You must be either the lowest form of filth, or have no other choice in order to do that sort of thing. Do you really think that you are going to get customers? You sad, sad imbeceile. Crawl back into the hole from which you came, and never return, or we will hunt you down. Remember, we have operatives all over the world.

WW2....These junkmail spammers are worse than telemarketers. They must be destroyed. (Deleted)! Is it possibe that they don't realize how despised they are? Or are they just born masochists? (The inbred need to be hated & humiliated)!

Sadly the amount of junk-postings seems to be on the rise, they just get everywhere. Is this the end of sanity, as we know it.......?

The only remedy might be to require 'loggin in', if this forum provider supports it.

These people are the scum of the earth. We must unite and pulverize them before they contaminate all of humanity. Eradicate, destroy, erase, eliminate, humiliate and whatever else it takes.

Easy guys - they're just annoying, not in the same league as the plague, or black death....... Just another phase of intrusive marketing, like double-glazing salesmen.

Although I will admit, that all the 'official' bodies that witter on about legislation to stop spamming, are both ineffective and totally bleedin' useless.

Think it'd be against the law to string 'em up tho' !

I noticed Petr and Mellisa are not assigned User ID numbers. Any way for those without assigned numbers to be deleted or quarantined? Something like no assigned number then no post?

Two questions:

1. What does this have to do with C mesody saxophones, and
2. Is it all in the can? Because I don't think you're going to get any more scenes with Heath Ledger...
