" . . . most accountants prefer to pilfer the (usually large) company they actually work for. . . "

reminds me of the story about the construction worker who, at the end of each day, left the site pushing a wheelbarrow full of dirt.

Everybody wondered what he was doing with all that dirt....

.... took them months to figure-out he was steeling wheelbarrows.

I was travelling through Boston Logan for work in 2002 and my laptop bag came up positive for explosives - you know that little cotton swab test that they do - needless to say they tore it apart, wrote down ALL of my information and upon retesting of the remains, found out that the original test was in error... I imagine I'm a list somewhere.

OK, I'm thinking I have a similar situation. Now, that slot in the nut for the high E, is mighty small. I know I don't have a blade that small. Any other suggestions.Waskel says the string should be snug in the slot, so this would make this a fairly touchy thing, I would think.

Bill, you say contact at the fingerboard side of the nut. Does this mean the slot falls away to the head side, with no string contact, other than at the high point? Is that high point rounded over?
