  Even at moderate energy machines, there is a regime where hard pion
electroproduction proceeds by a perturbatively calculable process. The process,
we claim, is not the leading twist fragmentation one but rather a higher twist
process that produces kinematically isolated pions. Semiexclusive data may
teach us more about parton distribution functions of the target and the pion
distribution amplitude. In addition, there is a connection to generalized
parton distribution calculations of exclusive processes in that the
perturbative kernel is the same.
