I wished to inform the whistle community here that for now I have ceased posting recordings, and don’t plan to resume until certain personal goals have been met.
I would like to offer thanks to everyone who has listened to my recordings in the past, and especially to those who have offered comments, criticisms, and suggestions.
Respectfully,
–James
You’re welcome, James. 
James
I’ve enjoyed your recordings as well. Hope everything is OK.
Peter
Az! You’re back! Now I don’t have to listen to Jack whining about you being gone anymore.
J. 
James,
Thanks for the help, hope you hit all your goals

Bah, Jack is gonna have enough of me in july, we’re gonna share a cottage for one week after all
james, I have also loved your recordings posted to this board. I have enjoyed them much more then Azalin’s comments posted to this board.
If Azalin can continue posting his comments according to his entitlement I do not see why you can’t articulate your posts as music.
Tali, azalin may not have read all the books on flying airplanes (especially indian ones) but he’s flown enough airplanes to know what he’s talking about.
I’ll take Azalin posts over anybody else’s cause they are the most entertaining. Az we had a where’s azalin thread on the pub that you might get a few laughs out of.
Why all the formality of an announcement? Have I missed something here?
Mike
Me too. I’ve been searching the archives of the board, and I’m utterly mystified – can’t find any threads that might have precipitated this.
Glad I’m not the only one stumped.
Can I please watch?
It’s a kind of olive branch to a few folks I’ve been a jerk to. They know who they are and understand.
There was nothing on the boards that led up to this…sorry for any confusion.

What type of online guerilla war is that? Indian, african? What book did ya read on the subject? 
Whats with the racial references, Darlin? And what war are you referreing to?
The fact is I enjoy peeplj’s music posts more than your posts (including your first post in this topic).
It is just a matter of taste, nothing to fight over …
If I can use Azalin’s “guerilla” metaphor, its probaby because some unidentified, heavily camouflaged group has been sniping at poor peeplj without leaving a trace.
Peeplj’s “white hanky” here does little for us poor villagers who love his audio clips and his right to post them.
Once again the right to free expression has been ridden rough shod by invisible forces …
Nobody made me do this. Nobody has even recently suggested it.
Nobody said anything mean to me. Nobody has recently been critical of me.
What did happen is after feeling worse and worse about how sour some of my interactions with folks here on the boards have been, and how much I regretted it, I sent some folks a very sincere apology, including acknowledging how much of a jerk I’ve sometimes been.
My not posting tunes to the boards was meant as a kind of peace offering; I still have flutesite to post to, so I guess it’s really just a gesture…but so is a handshake, or a hug. A gesture can have a lot of meaning…or, at least , I hope so.
I would take it as a personal favor if everyone just lets this go. The last thing I want is for this to stir up any kind of controversy, or to create any bad feelings.
I hope that the folks the gesture was meant for do understand: I have heard what you have to say and you have often been right, and I’m trying to do something about it.
With my sincere thanks,
–James T. Peeples
