There is an error in my posting in TD 132.
In my initial discussion of 24-/36-/72-ET in the
introductory section of the posting, I wrote:

This last statement is incorrect for this table.
Altho it is true for the 3 other ET charts I present
in the 3 musical examples, it is not true here.

In those charts, the denominators of the divisions
represent the entire 'octave', here the denominators
only represent the 12-Eq 'whole tone'.

I added that final sentence after I had made the other charts,
without realizing that it didn't apply to this one.
