Jim,

  I couldn't agree more and I have also read that in the last year even 
though he had this terrible disease he was still able to play. One article I 
read had one Las Vegas trombone player saying that at 80% Carl could still 
play better than the rest of us!

In the case of Carl Fontana, it is upsetting, even grotesque, to think of him being trotted out on stage but his daughter makes a good case for it, I think.<BR>
