Hi there,

It seems you guys are missing the point here. To use the example that was just mentioned in the last post.

A table can be used to make music like 99% of everything else. The difference being that it was not designed to produce music as it's main function compared to a true musical instrument where the main design purpose is to help a musician play music. As mentioned earlier, many, many posts back, there is a difference between a potential musical instrument and an actual musical instrument. Simple.

Surely, it's not that complicated.

As far as I'm concened. I'm just trying to explain what should be an obvious common sense fact. As you say, it does take you folks who can't accept that to keep the discussion interesting. Real silly at times but I guess it's each to their own.

That's my last one on this. I have a whole week off work and the computer's gonna be off the whole time, (musical instrument or not.ha,ha...).

Cheers, Gordon.
