However, as tuning is an art and we are human beings, we are probably all striving for perfection (and likely never quite attaining it) and we are never quite satisfied, always thinking it could be better - and we must never lose that! Remember, the perfect piano has not yet been made and no two pianos are exactly alike - so life remains interesting. Bob Wilson.
