Mr. Ives,
You said it all so well!
I find it amusing that your one typo -- I didn't go looking, but it just jumped out at me -- is genealogy-related. You suggest that a composer check the "spelling, punctuation, and the gramma ...". Shouldn't Gramma be capitalized? And why leave out Grandpa?
:).
Now if people will only follow your valuable suggestions.
