I would like to know what is the ideal composition, for the people in this 
list, in percentages of talent and craftsmanship. And here is another 
interesting formula: how much of sound engineer and musician should be in 
your blood stream? 

Do you agree that most popular programs here on LAU are better suited for 
sound engineers than for musicians?
