Paul and I have been talking back and forth about this
sporadically on the internet lists for a couple of years
now, and even tho Paul hasn't seen my meantone lattices
he certainly knows from the mathematical description what
they look like, so I thought it was time to at least put
up the pictures so that everyone else could see what I'm
saying (which might not be much, after all). : )
