corrections to my Microthon review

In my enthusiasm to spread the word about a great musical event,
I was a little hasty and posted my review without waiting
to clarify a few facts.

A blank line in the review was supposed to give the name of
Ted Coons, President of the AFMM and Professor of Psychology
at NYU, who provided Johnny and the rest of us access to the
performance space.

Joji Yuasa is the correct name of the composer of the solo
clarinet piece: I had mistyped it in my review.

Comments from Johnny Reinhard:

The last sentence is a reference to the 'lack of oxygen' complaint.
Johnny is quite correct that I should have mentioned the terrible
weather we unfortunately had to contend with this year.

Correction from David Beardsley regarding his piece _Sonic Bloom_:

> Not a subharmonic tuning.

The scale is actually:
1/1 9/8 7/6 9/7 11/8 3/2 13/8 7/4

Dave's guitar was a Gibson L6S, used as a MIDI controller,
and the source of the sounds was a Korg 05R/W rack-mount synth.
