Phil,  Thank you for your offer.  I'd like to take you up on the =
challenge but there's one little wee tiny problem.  I live in New =
Zealand.  You could always E-mail me an "A" I guess, but it could go up =
or down a cent or two during its electronic journey.  Perhaps a better =
idea would be to get someone local to do it. =20

To the Forum:  Phil is obviously keen to demonstrate his special gift.  =
Is there anyone out there living near Phil who can oblige?!  (Get him =
while he's hot!)  =20

    Rook, who had to re-think and UNUSE the gift in order to be able to =
tune pianos.

        Many people over the years have claimed to me that they have =
perfect pitch. When I ask them to be more specific on this, they start =
to cool off.  One person when asked what note I was playing on the piano =
went cold on the idea altogether.  To me, having perfect pitch means =
being able to detect or aurally produce a note within a maybe a few =
beats, but no one has demonstrated to me that they can get that close.  =
I would imagine that singers would be pretty accurate, but not perfect.  =
Any comments?
