jeffrey, i hope your post helps someone. i like lists better than charts and graphs anyday and this actually has nothing to do with my original faux pas. it certainly makes sense to me to say that the modifier goes in front of the thing modified as in biv9 vs. ivb9 defining whether the chord or note is the thing flatted, although i could have as easily been persuaded that the modifier should come last - all we need is an agreed upon convention and that was my suggestion - in the upcoming beginner page have a notational convention section, like most fakebooks do. it still seems redundant to say vm7 when v7 conveys the same info and in fact my fanatic programmer consistency gene screams "shouldn't it be mv7 anyway?" but again a published 'this is this site's convention' is a simple solution necessitated, i think, by the number of non-academically trained and foreign piano aspirants that frequent it.

i for one am done and think we've cluttered the blues forum enough. peace.
