[TheForge] PLEASE! Stop the Stupid comments

Tue Apr 30 16:33:01 2002

My answer is in the form of another question. What does it matter if the
piece is done traditionally? Regardless of method the piece will still be a
reproduction of a traditional piece. The appearance of the end product is
more important than the path taken. If it looks traditional, that is what is
important.
