which he published in the Journal 1969.  On the line of this discussion, I
remember vividly a conversation, years ago, I had with a PTG member (I
remember the face but not the name) who related to me that he used to work
with Keith Hardesty in LA and told me about a method that Keith used which
is the same as that described by Jim.  I don't want to diminish Jim's
discovery... just offer what I've heard in relation to it...  If anyone
knows more about Keith Hardesty it would be nice to learn more about this
interesting Tech...

     I didn't know Keith &Apparently he has passed on but he also passed on 
his idea to a few friends, one of which gave me a different set of touch type 
weights as someone in this thread was describing for the purpose of setting 
balance weight by judging the key speed as it moved up & down. Fenton Murray has 
come up with a chart in relation to this method which shows a variety of 
different columns that chronicle up, down & friction in relation to balance weight. 
I haven't studied it thoroughly yet but its quite simple & ingenious. Jim 
Christopher is the tech who knows more about Keith from a personal friendship if 
you wish to contact him. Jim is not on this list.
