Does anyone know if they are cracking down on this for any openings or just for full stage orchestra openings? I usually have the pit cover in and just an opening for the conductor (4'x8' platform removed). I wonder if I would have to get one for that opening...<br /><br />Joe<br /><br />Joseph P.

<div><span style="font-size: x-small;">Dear Friends,<br /><br />You may already have received this, but it is so important, I'm passing it along.<br /> <br />Quincy Jones has started a petition to ask President-Elect Obama to appoint a Secretary of the Arts. While many other countries have had Ministers of Art or Culture for centuries, The United States has never created such a position. We in the arts need this and the country needs the arts--now more than ever. Please take a moment to sign this important petition and then pass it on to your friends and colleagues.<br /><br /><span style="font-family: Geneva; color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://www.petitiononline.com/esnyc/petition.html" target="_blank">www.petitiononline.com/esnyc/petition.html</a></span></span><span style="font-family: Palatino; color: #000000;"><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">Happy New Year!</span></span></div>
