what is the best temperament?

[Kristinn Leifsson]

Come on Tony, they aren´t (shouldn´t) be different, but we don´t hear 
cents, we hear beats, so they sound different, although they aren´t, wow.

As for you harsh comments on Swedish bull,,,, well, I really do agree with 
Maria.  And WAY too many people agree on that also to call this 
bull,,,,.  Or like we say, helvítis kjaftæði! ...bruce.

Sure, people CAN do it by books.  But don´t tell me it wouldn´t be quicker 
and better to learn it from a human.

And why the harshness in the post, Tony? She was just being honest, and 
that´s what we want here, right?
I makes me sad that people get angry over these kinds of things.

Lighten up, don´t scare people away,

Kristinn
