>the perpetrator of the wide screen.
that would be I -- but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to actually post a link to the (now infamous) 1848 citation for southpaw. maybe I can fix it....
for future reference: I put in dash and a carriage return and it still seems to link properly

Dear tsuwm: my apparent petulance was pretended. I do enjoy your long posts. They supply the erudition so lacking in so many of the other posts.

more of the quote
Well, I was just judging by what is there in tsuwm's citation:
Drew's got an alto [horn].+ .... Drew don't hardly~ etc
The writer is using woodshedding in direct apposition to touch.

Ahh, I see. drew's got an alto [horn].+ drew dont hardly touch it, he too busy woodsheddin his drums.
Hmm. I'd say it's a possible interpretation but I don't see any compelling evidence for it. Maybe someone who knew Drew or A. Young could say for sure.
