  Wait - let me take a shot at answering first.  I don't have any
formal or informal training.  (I have a pair of drum sticks, but
I only play sofas, chairs, walls, and tables....)  Drummer - do
you mean a roll from the high tom to the low tom with three
hits on each as you go?  (Did what I just said make any sense?)

   Wow! That was the WORST response I ever heard! Just kidding...

   As you have already read I am sure, you know what a triple stroke roll
   is. You see, someone actually counted those and figured it out.
