This was a good posting.  
Thank you, now why don´t you go and tune a piano for a customer and make
all the fifths and fourths pure?  Tell them it´s in tune and tell us what
they said;)
I remember hearing an audio tape in a meeting in the Portland chapter.
Some violinists were explaining the different stretches of intervals in
solo playing as opposed to ensemble.  It was inspiring.

P.S.  I´m not pissed, but I may be tonight seeing as it is my birthday.
P.P.S. Sorry about the smiley-face Mr. Bremmer.
