Nah Bob.... don't do it!! :-)
At best, to those who have it, pp is as much of a curse as it is a blessing.
'Pitch' can be taught. I learned to whistle a440 in radio school as did every 
member of that class and I can still nail that pitch today.......but if you 
play a random note on a piano I can't tell you what it is unless by lucky 
guess..unless that note happens to be a440.
