This would be a good one to do a poll.  Might make for a few more
messages in a day, but it would be a good thing. Maybe there is a web
site that can take data, or have two volunteers, "Email your pros to
Joe, and your cons to John." That way a questionaire could be filled
out.

	Never heard of a sound board cracking from release of tension.
Plates cracking?  Hasn't happened yet.   How  many pianos,  ten to
forty?
