Thanks, Monz, for doing this. I really wish I could listen to it, but I
currently have no sound on my computer . . .

Funny?...?

I spent all day Saturday working on this, tediously, by hand,
after having it nag at my mind for a year and a half.

It wasn't meant to be funny at all. ...Just a different
tuning of a great piece, and an answer to Paul's challenge
that it wouldn't work. *And* - something I needed - a
validation of 22-tET in some way that was really musically
meaningful to me.

Anyway, laughter is only bad when it's at someone's expense,
so no harm done, glad you got a chuckle...

...?

No, Monz... I think you misunderstand me. I only meant that it was
somewhat lighthearted, and I enjoyed hearing it...

It brought a smile to my face, but I assure you that won't happen
another time.... :)
