True, but they had to be pretty ragtag orchestras.
Not necessarily... Think of the Schubert or Mendelsohn soirees....
No families involved there, unless you count a
brother-sister piano duo, which doesn't apply to
the issue at hand.
My point being that musical families often had multiple good musicians
at a time... and wouldn't have to be ragtag...
You may be overestimating the talent pool as much as I'm
underestimating it.
Every time we figure things are getting better, something
happens that dashes our hopes.
My answers to this are skating on off-topic, so I'll desist... Should I take it to email...?
Nope. Skating toward and falling over the edge are
distinguishable to the cop at least.
Ok, then... you may change your mind on that... :) I'd say that we
should know better than to think things are actually getting better here
on earth, given mankind's fallen nature...
You're skating closer with the fallen part. Intrinsically
imperfect would be an allowable characterization but wouldn't
say quite the same thing. I think there may not be a
permissible way of saying what you're aiming at.
Adding protein sometimes has unexpected consequences,
in dessert-making anyway.
Or subtracting it, for that matter...
Subtracting protein always has predictable consequences!
It always fails in the same way....?
Pretty much.
I'm guessing that either they fly under the radar (being primarily only for personal use) or they manage to meet minimum standards....
If it's personal use, that shouldn't come to anybody's
attention, unless the kids come down with one of the -oses.
Minimum standards, well, one hopes the regulators are better
than in the days of filled milk and TB.
They most likely are, but that doesn't mean that I'd necessarily be comfortable with the situation there... :)
The disturbing image is of cow patties in your milk,
which would be less of an actual health hazard.
To give an out to the in-laws, there are varying levels of
sanitation, not all of which are relevant to the wholesomeness
of the commercial product. Indicative of an attitude, sure,
but one kind of deficit doesn't mean another.
Which I do recognize... but we didn't go out to the Archer farm to pick
up raw milk... though I'd drink it on the farm if offered when I was visiting... But that's kinda what I was referring to above with their
meeting minimum standards, so not falling afoul of the authorities...
And that farm wasn't the one I was particularly thinking about before, either... but another one up in the North Country, where, if they met
minimal standards, those standards were very minimal....but that one
might in fact have been only personal use....
In that latter case, was your assesment as a result of
drive-by smelling?
As in the households I've been part of, visual clutter did not
mean bad smells or other sign of possible hazard.
Which I find a little different from dairy farms... :)
Though I've tripped over my brother's detritus, so there
is a potential hazard.
