[pianotech] Hammer strike line. Was-----Yamaha Hammer Suggestion

[William Truitt]

With proper due respect to you, your considerable knowledge, and your
incisive powers of reason, I think you are being discourteous, Ron.  Your
superior skills don't earn you or anybody else the freedom to be
disrespectful to others. From what I have read of Paul's remarks in this
thread, I don't think he has said enough to earn the dumping you are
proffering below. I would hope you will be more thoughtful in the future.

Why is this so threatening to you? Two people who design and 
build these systems in the real world have indicated that it 
is either less necessary, or altogether unnecessary to deviate 
from a straight strike line for tonal purposes in a RC&S 
board. If you, not having built boards like this at all, so 
lacking any experience with same, know better than those of us 
who have, why don't you inform us as to why we don't know what 
we're talking about instead of weaseling around this semantic 
bullshit? If you're not interested in learning anything 
outside your marketable experience, that's your call, but 
someone else might be. This information has been offered in 
all honesty as real and verified as valid by building the 
damned things and trying it. If you have anything real and 
pertinent to contribute besides speculation and misdirection, 
please do.
