Well, I've just discovered that Dave Keenan never actually *did* the
Blackjack tetrad conversion. In fact, the materials up on his
website are now, I believe, INCORRECT.

Basically, Dave just changed the INITIAL SCALE at the beginning of
the Word file, and then everything else is IDENTICAL TO THE ERLICH F-
C-G Blackjack file!

So, of course, they're wrong...

I need to write to Dave right away about this.

Please nobody rush out to compose in Blackjack using the tetrads on
the site. (Not that you'll find the available pitches there,
anyway... of course... :)

***Thanks so much for this quick overnight conversion, Dave. (Well,
I guess maybe it wasn't "overnight" in Australia...)

I appreciate it. I'm "finding" the pitches now... :)

best,
