Well hey Roger....thats what they pay us the big bucks for now aint it
?? :) You and me start hunting down sponsers... we can get all the major
networks involved... stage some kind of enourmous phoney arguement going
on... sorta like the WWA.... but not quite so obvious... We ask for only
225 dollars an hour... peanuts compared to what advertisers will pay the
networks..... we gotta set down this think group .... get the ball
rolling... :) Oh yea... we gotta come up with suitable stage names
for the participants... any suggestions... I mean Jim Coleman is an obvious
"Dr J.C. Doom" or something like that..... but Ric Moody.... hmmmmm...

<br>Hi Ric, Now each piano will need about two days work just to get them
matched, since voicing and regulation will effect the timbre and
stretch of each instrument.
<br>Well thats only about 10days work, Now add tuning all to the same curve,
that could be another couple of days to get them all stable.
Then get 2 RPT's to agree, mmmmmmmm allow another week.
<br>Then detune all exactly the same, ops! another two days.
Well after about a month, given stable climate conditions, we could perhaps
have a level playing field.
<br>Now I jump into my bomb shelter. Flame suit and tin hat on.

<blockquote type=cite cite>Well guys...ok... lets take a twist on this
as long as everyone seems so into it. Lets also include some expert at
using the Peterson tuner. Same audience aproval ratings and the rest of
our appraisal criteral to apply. I am sure that would provide us with just
as interesting information relating to whether the SAT is truly better
then the Peterson. . Better yet... YEA !! lets do a tune off between
the Peterson, SAT, Tunelab, RCT, and Verituner. To keep it fair and neutral
we can employ 30 professors of music (piano as main instrument) from accross
the country and tell them all straight out that they are judging the best
machine tuning. It oughta be a very enlightning affair.
