Wim,
Aren't you familiar with the "Greater Fool Theory of Economics"?  It states that
anything is worth what you pay for it as long is you can find a greater fool to
pay you even more money for it. - - - Seriously, I don't say anything.  I just
grit my teeth and do what they hired me to do (usually move and tune.)  Guy
brings up a good point with his 11 octave grand story.  Everybody knows there's 8
notes per octave - it had 88 keys and the word Grand written on the nameboard.
