working on a new webpage ...
just want to be sure that my
language here is correct,
specifically, the stuff about
basis and kernel regarding
12-edo:

>>
It can be seen that the
syntonic-comma, with
2,3,5-monzo [* 4, -1 > ,
is represented in 12-edo
by 0 (zero) degrees, and
in 22-edo by 1 degree.

Thus:

. the syntonic-comma vanishes
in 12-edo, and is a vapro which
forms part of the basis of the
kernel for 12-edo; but

. 22-edo has a different basis
which does not include the
syntonic-comma, thus, 22-edo
articulates the syntonic-comma.
