THUD

[Horace Greeley]

John,

Thanks very much for the quick response.

I just dashed off something after seeing Steve's post.

At 10:19 PM 11/21/2000 -0500, you wrote:

I like Steve's idea of the board being bound someplace the most, so 
far.  Also, that fits what you are describing.  I wonder if movers, at some 
point, have lost one of the leg wedges...  Something sufficiently localized 
that it affects only four notes, and only above forte does suggest 
something lodged against the board, rather than something being loose, I think.

Nothing ventured...
