I'm working on learning to be a tech (sorry for another msg but I hit send 
too soon) but I'm still having to practice temperament.  Also, the piano is 
in Oklahoma at Robber's Cave State Park (I know exactly where (or at least 
where it was 6 years ago) if you want details, and if anyone in the area 
wants to see if they can have a look at it), and I'm in Southern California 
and unable to make a trip.  and No, I'm not trying to make a 8'11" $250,000 
Steinway out of it!
