Susan doesn't seem angry, and she's not giving a tirade. Big difference.

An explanation of my personal attitude toward non-equal
temperaments, and the reason for it ---

People like me who use unequal temperaments are often accused of imposing
our own taste on the public (while ignoring the array of precedents and
sound musical reasoning for doing so).  How is Susan's explanation of why
she only likes and uses ET any different?  What reason other than her own
*opinion* does she give?  From where does the majority opinion that only ET
is appropriate come?
