Hmm . . . thanks(?) David. Obviously it's an e-mail address. Justin included
it as a "Cc" in his message. So I was wondering if it was some kind of
mailing list on just intonation or something. Justin kindly replied that it
was his own alternate e-mail address, with a play on his name. Very clever!
So am I a complete idiot for not picking up on that? Anyway, glad I can keep
you in business, David. (???) Was this reply either (a) helpful or (b)
pertinent to tuning? I don't get it!!

Ummm, not really. Unless there was some "character number
constraint," Justin SHOULD have used a hyphen or underscore, such as
"justin-tonation....etc...."

On a hotmail account?

I know what Norm Macdonald would say to a question like that.

Please! It's much more clever as a pun. Have to admit, though, I missed it, too, until he
explained.
