More on the Dampp-Chaser thang

Last week I tuned a Sohmer studio and the piano was a quarter step flat.
the pianist said she was having it tuned regularly.  At first  I thought it
was wild fluctuations in temperature, but I discovered a dammp-chaser
humidifier with the heat bar, but no humidifier.  The pianist said that the
tuner had said to "Keep it plugged in all the time"  Arrgggghh!  That was
the ticket.  

Why do tuners not sell the whole idea when they have the chance?  At least
they would not be contributing to the ruination of many a decent piano!

Peace Ya'll
Patrick
