What I presume happened here is Etienne started a thread advertising the free scores to "songs". Realising the abhorrent mistake, the post was removed. Am I right?

Damn. Next time I'll quote your message  ;D
Ed, you guessed right.
So now I have to turn this thread into something interesting.... so, again, how fast can you scale chromatically ?

Ooh yeah please. I can stretch an 11th on the LH and RH, a sixth with my right foot, but only a fifth with the left one. I think I need to do exercises for toe independence.

How fast can you scale chromatically with your toes, while hanging upside down, while reciting the Lord's prayer?

Is this including the sharp/flat keys?
