Kevin, I work with one of the few who has a clue, and even thou I posted 
here 2 weeks ago about a 'sick killer octave section', he knows now that 
scenario can not take place again..I won't re-post it, but it involved 
me changing a wire in a unpleasant atmoosphere for the piano.

Wally, do your best work and let the person in charge know what you're 
seeing/hearing. In my case, it was a simple matter of letting him know 
that certain situations are not conducive to good tuning stability.

The guy I work with 'gets it'..your mileage shouldn't vary, but probably 
will.

Mine will be crossed Saturday night.
