[pianotech] nomenclature

[Ron Nossaman]

As the semantics uh, discussions wind down on the caut list, 
and looking at the Toon yer own piano text on the web side Jim 
posted, I wonder. If technically inaccurate and misleading but 
widely used nomenclature is defended so vigorously on a 
technical list, why don't we call tuning pins pegs (or do 
we?)? Pretty much everyone else out there does, and it's not 
an inaccurate description. Just wondering.

Under every rock, another mystery.
