It is her. I find her cute and the baby too. As I said before, I respect Pianistimo, she is a kind person, she has helped me even with certain problems. I don't see any reason to join in that bashing mood against her. But because I know she has a good sense of humour I dared to post this, just because i find it funny to imagine a multiplicating Pianistimo.  ;D She can take "revenge" if she likes.
Thank you for putting me right on this. I could not have known previously, as I have never seen a photograph of her.

"Revenge"? Well, "vengeance is mine", saith the Lord - so I don't suppose for one moment that pianistimo, of all people, is likely to seek to usurp God's right to be vengeful. I doubt very much that such would be in her nature anyway...

Was the posting of this intended as a screensaver recommendation or as some kind of tacit implication that pianistimo has subjected herself to one of the more extreme experiements of one of the members of the Australian medical profession?

Yes, a screensaver for Prometheus and cziffra ;D . But first of all I just intended to illustrate the increasing numbers of Pianistimi on this poll. As you said, correlating to the numbers of commandments.

help!  this is getting out of hand.  i feel that i can no longer control this forum (as i thought i was supposed to be the pianoforum God).  i now beg nils to take it off - being as i have no control as to what goes on here ( not that i would really want to).  but, thal, must you call my messages 'spam.'  that is so mean.  of course, i shoiuld have known that to to flirt with you was tantamount to flirting with the devil himself - although there is always mephisto?!  i don't know him personally and really think that i would probably enjoy hearing you all play the piano. 
 
btw, yes that is me five years ago now.  i look kinda the same- but the baby there is now my five year old.

"Goddess" was the term used by some here, methinks. We'd none of us have guessed that you wanted to control the forum, though.

i now beg nils to take it off - being as i have no control as to what goes on here ( not that i would really want to).
Take what off? The whole forum? Or just this poll thread?

but, thal, must you call my messages 'spam.'  that is so mean.
That is his prerogative. Just as it is mine not to. I've expressed my views, as you know (and you're probably heartily sick and tired of hearing them), so I won't repeat them.

of course, i shoiuld have known that to to flirt with you was tantamount to flirting with the devil himself - although there is always mephisto?!  i don't know him personally and really think that i would probably enjoy hearing you all play the piano.
No one invited you to flirt with Thal or mephisto, so I don't think that thee would have been any real; sense of obligation to do so. You say that you really think that you'd probably enjoy hearing them all play the piano - but Thal and mephisto are only two people, so you should surely have used the word "both" rather than "all", unless, of coruse, you were also including in that desire the third party whom you mention in the same sentence - i.e. "the devil himself"; "the devil has all the best tunes", as the well known saying goes, although that alone doesn't necessarily make him/her a decent pianist...

Anyway - it's nice to know what you look like!

Best,

Alistair
