    Just to clarify, I said I tune piano studios three times a semester. I
didn't say they were in wonderful tune all the time. There's a difference
between bowing to reality and reaching and maintaining an ideal <g>. And my
reality is 0.5 FTE taking care of 75 instruments. My frequencies would be
higher if my FTE were higher or number of instruments lower.
