  1. What the fuck happened to this thread?

    I got fed up watching it, and constantly having to remind people it was quick questions, so I thought I'd leave it for a while to see how it got on without me. And this is what happens. Thereby proving that you people need me to save you from yourselves. You're welcome.

    Now. Quick questions.

  2. You get a bananahandle and you don't have to squeeze it to get rid of the annoying weird bit at the end because you've peeled that off at the beginning, like the monkeys do.

    OK, bought bananas so I can try this perversion. First attempt not exactly successful, I achieved the required bananahandle, but I'm not convinced about the weird end bit. It just got squashed at the beginning, and was a bit messier than I would like. However I will consider further investigation. May just need a slight change of technique.

  3. Before I try this banana madness, I need to know one thing. Does this new method mean you have to remove the edible white bit completely, or can you still do the flower petal thing giving you a nice handle to hold without touching the white bit? I prefer a bananahandle.

  4. I'm not sure what that means in practice.  Guess in an orchestra setting they must write the score for each instrument differently so that they play the correct note instead of the one that would normally be written on the score.

    Yes. If you wanted the trumpet to play the same melody line in C major as the violin for example, you couldn't just give them copies of the same sheet. You would have to write out the trumpet music as if they were playing the melody in D - i.e. if you accidentally gave the violinist the trumpet music, they would play the melody in D. And the trumpeter playing the violinist's music would sound like it was playing the melody in Bb. Full orchestral scores are mental.
