I'm reposting this to clear up what may have , should have, been
confusing to many. What I had thought was a 7:5 interval turns out to be
11:8. They are indeed close to each other but as I discovered for myself
recently they serve very different functions in the surrounding 5-limit
environment I've been playing them in. I'm learning about harmonic
tuning using my ear and until recently believed that it wasn't possible
to hear partials above 7. But epiphany struck and now I see the beauty
of 11 and 13. On to 17?

Again, I may have misunderstood Rod. That would, however, keep the
system closed, which could be good or bad depending on how you look at it.
