Glad to hear it. The one I tested on didn't. 6 foot Young Chang, arrived 
at the hotel as I was arriving at the test. Temperature about 68 in the 
hotel room, which was across the hall from an indoor swimming pool. The 
room (drapes closed) had west windows. The temperature started to rise 
as the afternoon went on. They asked if I wanted the air conditioner. I 
was afraid that it would throw the tuning. Should probably have said 
yes. It was at least 85 F by the end of the test.

Soared through, except the temperament, which I squeaked through with 
many discrepancies just barely over 1 cent.

Trying experience, for me and the examiners. Glad if it's done better now.
