If this is Scriabin's triple G grandson...

Then...

Nah, you'll just make fun of me.  Only J Menz and a few other people on piano street know of this.

I'll let J Menz tell you when he reads this!  Right now I'm too embarassed.  Not that it matters in the long run.

Everything is going to end soon...

What? ::)

You're just saying that because you'll get the short end of the stick!

Well, I've had a sleep, my coffee, and my brain appears to be operating more or less normally. Still no idea, I'm afraid - so I can't say what end of the stick I would be getting.

I don't quite see how one end could be short and the other long, though.  ::)

OOH OOH I KNOW! I'm just not completely sure how he fits in. Wouldn't it eliminate your usefulness?
