I think part of the problem is that we are calling these half=
 steps.  The 
distance between E and F is no larger than between F and F#.  It=

100 cents.  Why do we insist on calling those things whole steps=
 anyway.? 



James, 

These are half-steps(not whole steps), aka half-tones, semi-tones=
 or minor seconds, and there are 100 equal divisions between=
 them.  Each one of these miniscule portions is called a cent.
