Introduction
By Jesse Masin

Hi Jody,

I appreciate your response.  I am impressed by your efforts and am
excited to see all the interest in this area....

As way of introduction I recall growing up helping my father rebuild
all sorts machines from pianos, nickelodeons, to organs.  Even my
summer job as a teenager was operating a merry-go-round with a
functional Wurlitzer organ.  At the moment I am in the process of
rebuilding a Stroud Duo-Art Upright.  I'm new to the Internet and found
your site as a link on a home page that I'll look up later for you.
Several of the past articles in your archives would be of interest and
I'll attempt to look them up with the instructions you sent...

I'm currently trying to figure out how to access music libraries, to be
able to find copies of particular songs -- Broken Promises, Pal of My
Cradle Days, Scatterbrain -- in sheet music or Midi format for those in
my family that play a variety of instruments.  The other thing I am
trying to figure out is how to make copies of some of my favorite old
rolls (without having to order 6-10 copies!).  I'll keep reading your
newsletters with interest.  Thanks!

Jesse
