Actually, Perfect Pitch (always capitals) is what the guy who convinced someone they had it threw. Either that, or it's the sap from perfect trees, as already noted. If real "Perfect Pitch" exists, where's the definitive demo? Who will step up and show the Accu-Tooner who's right? Don't hold your breath. The only real selling point our species has is it's adaptability. That means there are no built in absolutes, like a hard wired pitch sense. Test the same people under different conditions of stress, sleep deprivation, blood sugar levels, etc, and you will probably get all sorts of drift. Ron Nossaman
