reg,

are you really trying to tell me that you think the term 'counter-tenor'
is deceptive in that someone might think it was a tenor? there is more of a
difference in the words 'counter-tenor' and 'tenor' than there is between
'as' and 'ass', not to mention 'elbow'. (is earthling your second language?)

gayly,
mike
