As much as I love the pipes, I thank John Williams for his decision to leave them out of the SW scores.

I've wondered how people learn to play the bagpipes. One would need a private, soundproofed room on a daily basis.

But they make such marvelous sounds!

Is anyone else thinking of Spock's funeral from Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan right now?

I don't think any one else is thinking of Spock's funeral, John, ever.

Sorry Jim - and I really hate to mention this but, YES, I almost immediately thought of Spock's funeral scene from Star Trek - The Wrath of Khan. Never has there been a more moving use of the bagpipes!

Geekery indeed!
