Hello Alan,  Thank you for your post regarding your work in determining
tuning scales and the variations used to achieve good tunings along
with, sometimes, special effects.

I think many of us on MMD would be very interested to know your
findings in more detail if the information is still available and
won't put you out too much to assemble it.  Even though it may be very
technical there are some here who might understand it.  I would be
quite pleased to hear a little more that may add some understanding to
the arguments between what is science and what is art when it comes to
comb tuning.  So far art is winning.
