In a number of voicing classes and seminars across the country, I have 
experienced (seen and heard) how tapping the bridge pin can reduce or 
remove false beats and even strengthen and focus the tone of that 
string.  I don't claim to know all the physics involved, or whether or 
not strings can climb, or jump, for that matter.  I'll leave that 
discussion to others with a better grasp of the math. 

In the meantime, (even if it isn't a "permanent" fix, just as my tuning 
isn't) I'll go on tapping pins here and there as needed,  improving the 
tone of the pianos I work on and satisfying my clients <G>.
