It rules for you, but do not impose it on everyone else.

Just what is this constrictor-hold that ET has over everyone?

Fear-of-learning-another-temperament?  All the hours involved with the 
aural schematics?

Give it up.  The latest ETD provides exquisite tunings without the 
brain-beating postulation.

Or, is it that the PTG 'totally subscribes'  to ET because of a need for 
some kind of 'standard:
Because:  If You Can't tune This, You Can't Tune Crap.

Of course, it is too much for the examiners to be well-versed in various 
temperaments.


I have found no opposition to WT's, only: "Why have I been lead down the 
garden path?

Open new avenues for your clients, they_will_thank you for it.

However, there will be a 'non-strayer' amongst them, the one who thinks 
that this (ET)
is the way it's supposed to be because their mother/teacher told them so.

It's a brave_old_world...



Regards,

Jon
