As catalyst for the sidetrack onto jazz and the relative merits (or demerits) of jazz and bluegrass music, I wish to state for the record that this Kentuckian owns a number of jazz tapes and CD's, but none of the bluegrass variety. I must confess a preference for horses to octopi, but this could be due to lack of familiarity with the latter, and should not be taken as any sort of personal slight.
