That guy is pretty impressive though - a cathedral-class pipe organ in a
normal random Alabama house?! Far out...

If you build a pipe organ you'll also have plenty of friends. Mainly
elderly men with beards, I predict.

Funny you should say that; so far all the organists I've met have been
jolly fat old men. (Not that there's anything wrong with that...) As for
organ *builders*... well, I've only met two.

Nope, no beards.
In fact, I'm going to Guildford Cathedral today, and the organist there
is a women. (Admittedly a pretty weird-looking one, but a women none the
less.)
