Inharmonicity in strings

[Jim Coleman, Sr.]

Hi Kent:

I lie corrected (not even standing or sitting) once again. As I re-read the 
original message (without wrap around on my screen) the word "octave" 
was off screen, I only saw the word 4th at the beginning of the next line. My
apologies to you for incriminating you as an accomplice.

You were correct all along in that an octave and a 4th does have the 8:3
coincidence.
