Clyde:
It was 3 springs in one piano.  The springs remaining are showing signs of 
corrosion at the coil and I'm expecting more to go.  I suggested to the 
customer that all should be replaced at one time, but she wasn't ready for 
that-yet.
Piano is out of warranty, i would imagine (it's at least 6 years old). The 
keybed rises and falls with the seasonal changes-although it seems to have 
stabilized in the past year.  The house is a very dry- hot water heat- place, 
but customer isn't interested in a DC system.  "I'm saving money to send my 
kids to college, blah,blah,blah", she states.
The she gets into her Mercedes and leaves me in the house alone with the 
Maid.  Nuff said?
