David,

Thanks for the reprint.  Seems as though the author is trying to make create 
more conflict than actually exists.  And it's always nice to find that people 
think of us as geeks and loners....:-}

As far as the ETD debate goes, the modern devices are pretty amazing, but to 
me, the bottom line is this:  how does the piano SOUND?  If one doesn't know 
anything about aural tuning, how can you even gauge what kind of a job your ETD 
has helped you do?  The ear has the final say, doesn't it?
