I did not comment on the difference between your temperament and Garys. 
I only pointed out that your statement that 3/1 was not 6^(19//31) was a 
bit overstated.... which seems easy enough to defend since 3/1 is... 
well 3 and 6^(19/31) is well... 2.99868889.  I haven't even bothered to 
decipher either your's or his temperament as such. Nor does this matter 
to me.


    Tuning A4's fundemental to this same 440... or 440 minus the
    0.00006297... difference 6^(19/31)   implies is not even a promile
    of a cent

        Sorry Ric, but you are completely wrong here. The difference of
        my  temperament  compared with Gary´s over a telfth is
        3:2.998688889 
        (whithout inharmonicity, so that equals to 0,75 cent. That is
        not at  all an academic difference for me.

        Cheers,

Again Bernhard, Gary suggests using a P-12ths priority,  I picked up on 
that in my own way... put it together with a few other bits and dabs 
that came along at pretty much the same time and started off from there. 
You want to argue about who is first, who did exactly what, whose 
temperament is this that or the other... and I don't give a hoot about 
all that. Thats the second time you took me completely out of context.  
I'm not going to do this with you Bernhard. If I want to dissect yours 
and Gary's papers and compare them I am most certainly capable. But 
frankly... that side of things does not interest me in the slightest.

Cheers,
RicB
