So does your mom....
YOU GUYS HAPPY NOW?!?!?

Only difference is bore size, mouthpiece size, amount of taper etc.
There exists a slide trumpet ( piccolo trombone? ) and a valved trombone
bass trumpet? )
Likewise, Flugel horn ( Piccolo Euphonium? ), French horn ( Tuba with a darn
small bore and mouthpiece )
Whatever, go away.

Three guys walk into a bar. The bartender says to the first guy, "hey,
you look pretty smart, what's your IQ?", and the first guy replies
"200". So the bartender chats for a couple minutes about fluid dynamics
and wave theory. He asks the next guy what his IQ is, and the guy replies
"120". So the bartender talks with him a while about local politics and
the economy and the local sports franchise. Finally, he asks the last guy
what his IQ is, they guy replies, "45". The bartender replies, "Oh,
really, and how long have you played trombone, anyway?"

Perhaps you should grow up.
Btw, why izzn't the trumpet the same as the trombone? If the trombone has
valves, or the trumpet uses a slide, then they are just one octave apart,
with the nessesary bore and slide length adjustments to suit the different
registers.
I like both the trumpet and trombone.

I think it would be nice to play on .... because sliding that tone down is
te nicest sound on the trombone
... Check out Fred Wesley and say again that trombones suck ...
I play the trumpet and I think it's a pity that I can't play both ...
but then again I would like to play some sax too ...
It's just not possible for me to play trumpet together with others ... i
feel my sound
becoming terrible ...

Me too. I used to double on the trombone regularly. Sitting in a big
band in front of the trumpets helped me understand why so many lead
trombonists have bald spots on the backs of their heads. We trumpeters
don't realize how fortunate we are to stand behind the noise we're
making.
Fancy arguing over which instrument is better! Man, you are no better off
comparing which side of your pea sized brain is functioning.
And if you think trumpeters are noisy, go listen to some OST movie scores.
Darned bass trombone pedals.

Well, given the higher mass of a saxophone, it will travel further if thrown
by a Hercules.
