Roller Organ, Roller Piano & Roller Towel
By John Phillips

This is really raking over old coals, but the article in MMD for 020215
prompts me to say that I have never heard anyone in Australia refer to
a player piano as a roller piano.  The term pianola is what most people
use.  Mind you, I don't know what they say in Queensland.  Anything's
possible up there.
