Never criticize anyone until you've walked several kilometres in their shoes.
Because
1. You're now several kilometres away; and
2. You've got their shoes.

I can never think of anything witty to put into a signature.

ओं मणिपद्मे हूं, "Om Mani Padme Hum."
This is a mantra that I have found impossible to translate into English. It is a Tibetan mantra of the Boddhisatva of compassion.
In my own experience with chanting, this mantra reaches out from my heart to gently touch the great ground of all life, of all of our becoming and ending, of all of our joys and sorrows, in a spirit of kindness, peace, and joy.
My word really does not do justice to the experience, but Imee Ooi's muscial adaptation expresses the spirit.

Claude-B. Balbastre: La Suzanne in A minor from Pièces de clavecin (1759) / T. Pinnock
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeud-JCi9YM
Don't use YouTube enough to even be able to know how to embed the video, which is really only a recording anyway. Just got curious about who was featured playing this piece on YouTube.
I like the recording by Skip Sempé better, maybe because he plays it yet more frantically

You can see someone actually at the keyboard here:

This looks like a lot of fun. I want to learn this.
Here's another lovely piece by the same composer (no attribution for the performer):
Claude-B. Balbastre: La genty

Thanks, Colonel Sun,
Don't worry, I won't inflict this sort of thing on the forum too often. I've mentioned my poor internet connection before, and right now, doing something about that has less of a priority than other things ... like the harpsichord.
Yes. I've built two Zuckermanns (kits modelled on period instruments). The tuning isn't so bad. It takes about five to fifteen minutes if you keep it up (every day) and you're not a perfectionist, but I live in a place where the humidity is fairly constant. What really takes time and patience is replacing strings; it goes easier with two people.
