<pre style="font-size: 9pt;"><tt>A guy once told me that he had taken up tuning his own piano. He said he
was having a real problem hearing the pitch and I asked him what he was
using for a mute. His response was, "Mute? What's a mute?" Now that's
a real tuner you ya: "Mute, I don't need no stinkin' mute."
However, there are guys who can tune with only two mutes. Now that's skill.
