I can supply you with the Ella CD'S but you will have to look in your own
library for Britney :)

One thing I've learn in my years as a member of Tweeters
is that there are no experts... just folks with varying
degrees of experience and varying opinions.

Yes, I agree with Wayne- something he'll tell you is not
always a given. And I made a couple of sonograms from a
readily available source that compare House and Purple
Finches as per Wayne's suggestion.

If Mr. Stewart chooses to interpret this as an insult to
his abilities, well... This is, for now, America and
God Bless him.

Now you'll excuse me while I make sonograms of Britney
Spears and Ella Fitzgerald for comparison.
