I thought it was spelt MaRiner, and he was born 1922 I think. I see no point in the anecdote.

[edit] Personal story
I was stationed on the island of Crete for over half of my military career. In the summer of 1984, I was at a friend's house right on the beach in the village of Chersonissos. We had his stereo speakers out on the porch and were playing Brian Eno's Music For Airports, the first of his Ambient series. This thin, elderly British gentleman came over to us to ask who the musical artist was and I told him. He wrote it down. I then mentioned that I was a musician and played guitar, bass, harmonica and keyboards. He told me he was in music too and introduced himself as Neville Marriner. At that time, I did not know who he was. Had I known, my face would have turned red, I'm sure. 13:33, 7 February 2006 User:RobtJonz m (Personal story about Sir Neville Marriner.)
- He wasn't that elderly…only would have been sixty at the time. — $PЯINGrαgђ 18:35, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
