Hi Bob,

I'm sorry if I tweaked you a tad. I did use the ; ) icon to show tongue in
cheek. What I am getting at is that the JI orientation is at odds with the
melodic expectations that the other pitches expect.

I know this is tough to explain, so I expect it must be tough to understand.

Best to you and our microtonal brethren in the New Year!
