Not complicated...however, the physics of the instrument would preclude a rock version.

Insofar as 'looking things up' is concerned,
1)I have a well developed reference library of thousands of American songs which I refer to on a regular basis.
2) I have my own distinct musical taste which does not include sea shanties.

I don't trust Google not to make a search selection based on their own political philosophy, and not to collect personal information for some later use or sale. I also will not use the Google desk top search software. Ask.com is working well for me.

That's interesting. Thanks for taking the time to explain. I have not read a whole lot about this; I've only heard bits and pieces here and there. However, I can understand your concern for your privacy. And, I'm not really familiar with Ask.com but maybe I'll try it.

Re your post #42 - BTW, the rest of your post was interesting, too. I meant to say that before, but, I have been on the computer way too long tonight. So, again, good night -- and, enjoyed chatting!
