  1. Recently the EU imposed regulations affecting the materials used for the production of harp strings, the biggest manufacturer of which is in the UK. (Bow Brand) I doubt very much that the royalty over at the EU cared much when just about every classical harpist in the US began experiencing strings snapping right and left, unpredictably and disastrously disturbing performances. Keep in mind that 35 of a harp's 47 strings are made of (EU contaminated) gut, that those strings cost between $5 and $28 per string depending on length, that all harpists carry a full set in reserve and therefore cannot get refunds for broken EU-crap strings because they are always over 2 weeks old when they break. Moreover one's reputation and career will always be threatened if a string breaks during a concert or a wedding. The quality control is back on track for now, but the damage it has done is immense. Want to hear what it's like?

  2. EDIT: Thanks to everybody that has expressed interest for another conversation. I intend to host another conversation in very late August after I close on a townhouse that has a good internet connection. My current connection is awful and I wouldn't be much of a good host trying to do this on a crappy internet connection. I'll up date this post when I have a date in mind. I was speaking to another FDR listener today, and we've both noticed that many folks within the FDR community have a strong entrepreneurial spirit within them. I know some that currently run their own business, are beginning a freelance start-up, or are thinking about starting their own business or going freelance. I'd like to gather that power and drive to create into a monthly google hang-out. A place where ideas can be exchanged, feedback given, bad habits challenged, experiences shared, associations made, or even to promote your business. Perhaps we can devote some time to 2-min Elevator pitches and ask for feedback if we feel so inclined. I'd like to address two questions for the fist meeting: 1.) Why did you become an entrepreneur? 2.) What fears did you have about starting your own business? Tentatively scheduled next Monday July 21st at 7pm US mountain time ( -7 UTC). I'll host and create a g+ circle that will include anybody that is interested. If you own your own business or are thinking about it, speak up!
