Why thank you. :-)

Well, I wanted to do it because I like it. But seriously, I spent 
*months* working on this. Some recognition would be nice...

Heh. It depends. I've been practising for decades, but even when I first 
started, I quickly became fairly good at it. It takes some doing to get 
to the point where you can play fluidly - but it is *so* worth it when 
you get there! :-D

I play keyboards. Once you know how to play something on a keyboard, you 
know how to move your fingers in the right way. If you can reach that 
stage, learning other stuff becomes much easier. (Easier compared to 
somebody who's never played in their life, that is. Some tunes never 
become "easy"...)
