I know this kind of ignorance and bigotry, the two seem to go hand in hand, are out there. I pretty much expect it for that matter. What I have found to be nearly 100% consistent is that anyone who says or does these kinds of things ALWAYS produces a piano tuned in Reverse Well. Not only is it not equal, every single chord played sounds completely *ass backwards* (a term my venerable dad often used). As Johnny Carson used to say, "Believe it or STUFF it".
