<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Phil, Thank you for your =
offer. I'd
like to take you up on the challenge but there's one little wee tiny
problem. I live in New Zealand. You could always E-mail me =
an
"A" I guess, but it could go up or down a cent or two during =
its
electronic journey. Perhaps a better idea would be to get someone =
local to
do it. </FONT></DIV>

keen to demonstrate his special gift. Is there anyone out there =

near Phil who can oblige?! (</STRONG>Get him while he's =
hot!)

<DIV><FONT size=2>Many people over the years have claimed to =
me that
they have perfect pitch. When I ask them to be more specific on =
this,
they start to cool off. One person when asked what note I =
was
playing on the piano went cold on the idea altogether. To =
me,
having perfect pitch means being able to detect or aurally =
produce a
note within a maybe a few beats, but no one has demonstrated to =
me that
they can get that close. I would imagine that singers =
would be
pretty accurate, but not perfect. Any =
comments?</FONT></DIV>
