In the Moore temperament, the 5ths built on G,D, and A are all 3.5 cents 
from pure, while the rest are all 1.5 cents from pure.

asci graph of major thirds built on listed note in circle of fifths order: 
(each "*" equals one cent from pure)


C...**********
G ..**********
D...************
A...**************
E...****************
B...****************
F#..****************
Db..****************
Ab..****************
Eb..****************
Bb..**************
F...************
C...**********

So A-C# and Bb-D are about the same width as ET thirds.

enjoy!
