[pianotech] phenomana - experiment.

[David Renaud]

There really is a relationship between beer and quality of tuning.
The more you drink the better it sounds. :)
Oppps.......no silliness here.......
Back to whacking each other with our temperament strips
And zapping each other with our machines.

I for one am going to work on gathering some seasonal data.
At this point for me seasonal harmonic changes and resultant tuning changes
Is just a hypothesis, at least if harmonic variations are measured and
vary seasonally, and this is shown repeatedly on a number of pianos, 
it will be more then a hunch, and Deserve a full blown real test. 
Same test team, same piano, same Number of beers. Two different times of year.
Hopefully the planets will be aligned the same also so were in the same gravitational 
Pocket. Can't control it all, but we do what we can. 

                             Cheers
                              Dave Renaud
