OK, two people suggested just leaving the piano on its back a day or two, and in some instances that should work fine. But I do hate doing that, when there are kids in the house who think that would be so fun to play under the thing, and I usually have the lid removed because otherwise it will flop down anyway, so that has to be set somewhere, and sometimes the room is small even when the piano is upright.... I see some problems here, but if that's what the rest of you do, it should work for me, too.
