This made me feel sad - yesterday I read in the NY Times that they are using an electronic device that fits into the bell of a bugle, to play "Taps" at military funerals. The reason? The bugler isn't really; can't play a note; just for show. There aren't enough real buglers anymore to keep up with all of the military funerals, so this electronic doodad is being used. Apparently plays a beautiful, flawless version...
