It's not April 1st anymore, but the story persists. Page B3 of today's 
Boston Globe, "Specialist probes pond for Ruth piano." John Fish, 
expert in finding black boxes underwater, is on a mission, trolling 
Willis Pond (Sudbury, MA) with a load of electronic gadgetry on his 
Boston Whaler, looking for the out of tune piano that Babe Ruth was 
reported to have "pitched" out of his cottage into the pond.
Good grief!

List
	The best part of this whole fiasco is this groups intent to
"rebuild" this piano and play it on the field at Fenway Park. 
	Let's see we start with a rusty piece of cast iron----
	Maybe we can just send the thing to Mr. Nossaman, I've heard is
very resourceful.
 Ron,  my only suggestion is that the scale design lend itself to Equal
beating Victorian temperament and a triple duplex hyper -turbo chrome
plated titanium self tuning aliquot duplexamotor systemic vibratory
segmental CFT inspired singing whatsit. 
	Good luck
