Pianos wet and dry

[Don]

Hi all,

It is not uncommon on the praires for a piano from a coastal area to *die*
after a short time in our harsh (read low humidity 4%) winters. The other
side is summer where humidity levels reach 84%. It isn't the low or the
high that does pianos in--it is the change.
