Floating pitch -- & ear plugs

the sailing metaphor behind)---

Avast mates!  An' we was just gettin' this hulk under way!

By the way Mark, the pitch floats at Banff too....When a chinook blows in &
takes the temp. from -28 to +40 overnight, things shift dramatically.
However, they can move back just as fast.  It's just that the tuning
frequency keeps the shift at a manageable minimum.  Not many places have
that luxury.
