My own tastes and resedarch led me to futurmat. I was and am interested in the new futurmat machines. However, I am having a difficult time getting straight answers from most of the online companies that sell espresso machines. Most of them seem to put down Spanish made machines. If you have the time I would appreciate your oppinion of futurmat quality. I hope this is not a bother for you. J.C. Carter Dear Dave,

I am in such an incredible reed slump and feel like I have lost so much oboe proficiency. I would love to take some refresher lessons. I remember you told me you are not into teaching oboe, but wondered if you could recommend someone in our area (Prince William/Fairfax). Thanks! Love your blog! Laurel Hey Dave,

As a saxophoneriista (and you have been there too - clunk, clunk - oops, there goes the bell!) I truly enjoyed the page(s). PB let me know where to find you. Keep brewing the coffee, lotsa cream alongside (in case I'm in the area). My oldest is heading to college next year - can you believe it? You will be there soon, too. Brew well, Cynthia Dave,

I am a student from a secondary school in England, Europe and would very much like to use your photograph on my school work. The photograph will only be seen by myself, my teacher and the exam board and will be used for no other purpose. I would be most grateful if you would allow this to happen. The photograph in question is a picture of some carrots, as I am doing work on healthy eating. Please reply a.s.a.p. Thanks, Nicola Riley. nickiriley@hotmail.co.uk Dear Sir,

I am very curious of the serial numbers of the Brenner Oboe and English Horn. I am an oboist and have collected 7 "formerly" famous oboes and keep a listing of oboes that our "historic" American players have used and I would love to know the specifics of E. Brenner's oboes. His playing is wonderful. cheers! Brent Hi!

It is good to see you doing well. Who ever knew that two boys from Central New Jersey would end up playing oboe for a living? I am out in Los Angeles playing a bunch and working as chair of music at CSU Dominguez Hills. Take care. Richard Kravchak Howell High School, class of 1976 Hi David,

I love all the little stories about your experiences with your oboe. A fellow blogger suggested I check your site out as we are both lovers of coffee and oboe. I'm pretty sure I'll love being a parent someday. I just need to find a man who will share me with my first two loves! I'd love to link to your blog, but would like to ask permission. Check my baby blog out and let me know! Hi David!
