    This is an aerial view of Eric Clapton's home in Dublin Oh. Dublin is a couple miles up the road from me. Clapton's current wife is from Columbus.

    No wonder he plays the blues so much, having to live in a hovel like that.

    So I happened upon this image and thought it was quite amusing, and wondered about it's origin (Jerry Lee Lewis spoof, maybe?), so I did a "Search Google for this Image", and was amazed at just what the supertech software revealed.

    I'm guessing it wouldn't sound the same with just one cheek? But what if the pianist had a rather large backside? One would think they'd hit too many keys.

    Interesting points you raise.
    I guess it's rather different than, e.g., a four hand piano piece.

    as a side note (heh), I am also reminded of this Gary Larson chestnut.

    ^^built in Marysville,OH…just a few miles up the road from me. Have an acquaintance who is the lead interior design engineer for Honda Motor Co of America, for both the Accord and the NSX.


    The NSX is hand built, and not on an assembly line.
