	Grandfather clause (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		In the United States, a grandfather clause is an exception which allows something pre-existing to remain as it is, despite a change to the contrary in the rules applied to newer situations.
		It is often used as the verb "to grandfather" or alternatively, as "grandfather clause." Often, such a provision is used as a compromise, to effect new rules without upsetting a well-established physical or political situation.
		But note that to "grandfather in" actually means the opposite; when a new situation comes about that would be to the benefit of a person who would not have qualified.

		In my case, the instrument observed was not a sitar but a curved soprano saxophone, battered and long unplayed, that had belonged to my grandfather, who had played it and his other saxophones in marching bands in turn-of-the-century San Diego.
		When I followed in my grandfather's footsteps and turned to music in my teens, it was the clarinet and eventually the tenor sax that I learned to play.
		There was a lesson to be learned from this experience, although I could not learn it until years later when I compared the history of Jazz as remembered by the critics and the scholars of the art with the music itself as actually played on one particular night or another.
