No, you miss Doc's picture of the misses with the "large beers" (as do I... ) :shock:
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

I checked here this morning, to see how this discussion had evolved, and actually it occurred to me `at least there won't be food pictures.' But here they are anyway, for practical purposes. For all I know, it's just a convenient opportunity to play games with Sean and has little or nothing to do with the original thread content, and in any case, who cares! If for example Chuck wants to pursue the question he posed yesterday, he sure can, whether or not the food picture guys have declared this topic dead.

But out of curiosity, is it that you food picture moderators feel that discussion of mouthpiece characteristics vs. dimensions is out of place here? Did you have the impression that someone was getting riled up, bulletin board feud in progress? Let us know the rules, maybe we can avoid the need for intervention in the future.

At least I understand now where Sean was coming from. Thanks for demonstrating that to me. I had never looked on the food pictures as being a list-mom-ish topic-dead declaration, but I see that now. That's what Sean meant by "destroying". I'm thick; I didn't get it at first.

As for being riled up, the most clear-spoken debates are the ones where people are just riled up enough to lose their inhibitions, but not so much that they either get mean or forget how to talk.

I hardly think that this is a dead topic; in fact, I have pointed readers to this very thread regarding mouthpiece comparisons on another brass bulletin board.

I hope they also see the "shallow mouthpiece" thread, the LM 10 and 12 pictures particularly. I think it's particularly interesting to look at the LM 10 picture and note the apparent cup shape, and then read Houser's web site text that describes what the mouthpiece is about.
