Hi Ron,

Not bad--but are we not supposed to look at a piano from the ideal? I know
there are lots of new pianos that don't do 8 seconds at c6--but does that
make them worthy? And of course some hundred year old uprights still do 11
or 12 seconds. Now THAT *is* impressive.

Could any of the more experienced suggest what would happen to sustain time
if Phil replaced the strings? Would it get better or worse?
