Anything which makes your universe less complicated is great with me !
Simplicity is great for simpletons who try to understand and survive in a complicated real world. As simpletons make up over 90% of all consummers, including book buyers, profit-seeking-authors tend to simplify things for them,often presenting the wrong facts, leading them to wrong conclusions, despair and financial loss ultimately!
Many such authors are original simpletons themselves, for no honest intelligent person would purposely misinform and harm another for profit.
You don't belong to this category Robert and enough said on this last attempt of yours to, yet another, tactical distraction :
Do tell me, if you please, how many times are Baron "Bagge"-also spelled "Bache" or "Bach"-and "Gossec" mentioned in idol Mozart's correspondence (in a list preferably that includes place, date, subject) so that -and for the first time-you become more specific and we may finally compare notes on -your subject afterall-Mozart's manufacture!
Did Mozart ever meet "Bagge" or was he instead bagged by-and forced to leave Paris in 1778 because of-him?
By all means surpise me, dispute and challenge my findings for a change, otherwise even the most simple of your simpleton tentative buyers will sense the little something in your wind!
Cheers!
BTW: Do not ommit to read through

Le personnel musical de l'Opéra de Paris sous le règne de Louis XVI) where you'll find two references to mason-musician "Baron Bagge". Page 205 pretty much covers my view of things, in general, and "our subject" in particular, ie "G's" (=Bagge's) relations to Ben Franklin and -the "jesuit" creation of(LOL)-the USofA!
