I am also grateful for the Elgar Third. But as a general principle after
the unearthers and the realizers have done their worst (or best) a healthy
skepticism is appropriate. I have profound doubts about the authenticity
of the Ives Universe Symphony - not that any fraud was perpetrated- just
lots of wishful thinking and unjustified extrapolation.
