Hi.  It's Peter, I got one of your persimmon trees this morning at the pharmer's market.  Thanks!  About the Osage Orange, the attached pictures show an electronic sound organ that I make with that wood.  Let me explain: because it is a bow wood, it is very flexible.  I use thin wooden bars as flex sensors by mounting a transducer beneath.  I also have a guy, up in the woods who is an artisan of the sawe, and can slice such hard pieces up, as long as they are four feet in length.  Thus I propose to donate one of these organs to the city in return for a billet of the proper length to make it with.  First though I would like to see the tree with you, can we do Tuesday still?  I have a chainsaw and a baby.  PB
