How long does it take to tune the average Piano?

Steve pitch raised a spinet 1 whole step (I think) and tuned it three times in just
over thirty minutes.  The first pass was about six minutes.  I was there and
somewhere in the basement I have the original recording of the demonstration on a 10
1/2" reel.  An amazing accomplishment physically and mentally.

At least _one_ of us got into the book.
