I have a 4 digit SD that was purchased from Bunny Berrigan's grandson! It is rumored to be the same Getzen SD Satchmo is pictured playing while at Bunny's daughter's house! Robert Rowe said he had the picture, but alas he died before he could confirm. It's a great lead horn, cuts like a knife as long as one uses a lead mouthpiece.

I'm still looking for a legit reason through the forum. If it was said in private and no ones life was threatened, then what is the justification? That's what I want to know. If we are not free to disagree, even vehemently, then there's no point to posting anything but "cat" pictures.

Toby, if you have been gone a week, maybe you didn't see why the poster has been banned. And let's not forget that such decisions are not always based on what we can read, but also by what we can't. That is, by private messages which may have also influenced the final result.
That's what I'm looking for. I don't see anything in this thread and this is the end. It must have happened elsewhere. I see nothing in this thread other than two guys with differing views arguing. I've met and talked to Dr. Go personally and I have to say I'm perplexed to his banishment. Please enlighten me. BTW, I do not agree with Dr. Go and we've discussed but it never got to this level.

Dr Mark PLEASE STOP the PERSONAL ATTACKS. Another administrator clean up on aisle 3.
Attacks? Nope, everything I said is true. You are a hospital employee who argues with the Yamaha Corp about trumpets.
Time for me to practice.
That's over the line!

Where are all the other forum members and potential members? Too theoretical and pedantic for them?
Good point
Honestly? Who wants to argue this point? I don't post for a week and a leading member is banned? Over a buzzing thread?? Mouthpiece choice, death cage match for sure! Buzzing? Just let the no buzzers alone. There's no cure for cognitive dissonance!

Seems as if it doesn’t matter... I see a red “banned” banner next to one of the names. I’m not sure what happened there.
Hands down the best ever for me!! SIZZLING!!!!
Congratulations on joining the Getzen 900 Herriot LB "club"! As far as I know, it's you and me!! I love both my 900H's, MB and LB!
A gas station owner was trying to increase his sales; So he put up a sign that read, "Free Sex with Fill-Up." Soon a local pulled in, filled his tank and asked for his free sex. The owner told him to pick a number from 1 to 10. If he guessed correctly he would get his free sex. The guy guessed 8, and the proprietor said, "You were close. The number was 7. Sorry. No sex this time." A week later, the same guy, along with his brother, Bubba, pulled in for another fill-up. Again he asked for his free sex. The proprietor again gave him the same story, and asked him to guess the correct number. The redneck guessed 2 this time. The proprietor said, "Sorry, it was 3. You were close, but no free sex this time." As they were driving away, the guy said to his brother, "I think that game is rigged, and he doesn't really give away free sex." Bubba replied, "No it ain't, Billy Ray. It ain't rigged. My wife won twice last week."
A farmer named Clyde had a tractor accident. In court, the trucking company's fancy hot shot lawyer, was questioning Clyde. "Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine,'?" asked the lawyer.
Clyde responded, "Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite cow, Bessie, into the..."
"I didn't ask for any details", the lawyer interrupted. "Just answer the question, ...please. Did you, or did you not say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine!'?"
Clyde said, "Well, I had just got Bessie into the trailer behind the tractor and I was driving down the road...."
The lawyer interrupted again and said, "Your Honor, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on the scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question."
By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in Clyde's answer and said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favorite cow, Bessie".
Clyde thanked the Judge and proceeded. "Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite cow, into the trailer and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my John Deer Tractor right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting, real bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear old Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans.
Shortly after the accident a Highway Patrolman came on the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning, so he went over to her. After he looked at her, and saw her fatal condition, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the Patrolman came across the road, gun still in hand, looked at me, and said, "How are you feeling?"
"Now tell me, what the heck would you say?"
