Actually, Adam, the professional recording studio that we went to, to  
record my Dad's song, offered our non-profit organization free  
services for recording any audio files that we need for our work with  
SignWriting...and I bet, because you work with me, they would be happy  
to record your song professionally...in fact that makes a great story,  
when you think about it...a Deaf person who composes music is rare and  
could be a very interesting project for the studio...so if you want to  
do this, sometime when you are planning to come down to work with me  
anyway...we can contact Studio West for an appointment to record your  
music..you can read about them on the web...they record audio for the  
movie and music industries...http://www.StudioWest.com
