It may not do him much good. I heard that Bill Bremmer's patent for 
Just intonation was recently approved, including all systems for 
tempering musical scales which flow therefrom. Based on the Monsanto 
patent of plain white rice. He plans to retire on the royalties paid 
by ETD manufacturers, spending his time writing.
