Jeff, I remember that look. Just look back at him and say no kidding! :-) My question to you is did you use the latest variables that Fred posted. Your result of 3.6 seems a bit high to me. If I remember correctly, you have less pianos that Ithaca College. My result is 2.59. If you have used Fred's current variables, then it may a matter of inventory condition and/or interpretation of the variables. Though call I'm sure.
