(right click).  

You get some weird people out there who do strange things to web 
pages.  I'm trying to help myself out a bit whilst I'm still writing 
pages.

(slightly non-Linux stuff here)

Yes.  There's just something about her technique that reminds me of 
Ron.  I used to live the the Ronnie Scotts jazz club at Frith Street 
and once in a while I would go home to my place at Bayswater.  If you 
had ever seen him play driving jazz at 2 in the morning you wouldn't 
ever forget.  That was in the days before any electronic instrument.  
I thing the glissando vibe had just come along.  Electric piano music 
was just about making it's way into the jazz scene.

Great stuff to listen to.  There are plenty of people out there who can 
play the instrument well.  Just that she's really got something about 
her when she starts to play.

Right, back to hacking some more pages now...
