table of ET advocates

Many thanks to Paul Erlich for corrections and additions
to my table of Advocates of ETs (sent to me several
months ago). I've finally fixed the webpage:
http://www.ixpres.com/interval/dict/eqtemp.htm

There was some discussion here a few months ago,
in which I contributed quite a bit, on Salinas.
Did we ever settle the question of whether or not
Salinas advocated 19-tET?

I already had 1924 as the date for Carillo's first
publication advocating 24-tET. Paul Erlich reminded
me that Carillo was really championing 96-tET and
its subsets, of which 24-tET is one. I'm looking for
my copy of Gerald Benjamin's _Julian Carillo and
'Sonido Trece'_ and can't find it: is 1924 the correct
date for Carillo's publications on 96-tET?

Paul also pointed out to me that Joseph Schillinger
advocated 144-tET (one of my own personal favorites),
but didn't have the date. The _Schillinger System
of Musical Composition_ was published in 1946 - is
this the book that has the info on 144-tET? There
are some more recent books containing Schillinger's
work; the two listed in the U. of Penn library catalog are:

Title: Encyclopedia of rhythms : instrumental forms of harmony : a
massive collection of rhythm patterns (evolved according to the
Schillinger theory of interference) arranged in instrumental form / by
Joseph Schillinger.
Publisher: New York : Da Capo Press, 1976, c1966

Title: Mathematical Basis of the Arts
Publisher: 1948

(BTW, Schillinger had already died in 1943, before his work was
published.)

Paul also reminded me that Giacinto Scelsi composes
in 24-tET. Does anyone have the date of his earliest
statement expressing a preference for this? (Johnny
Reinhard perhaps?)

And someone *please* give me some info on who it was
who advocated 171-tET, and when.

No one supplied any positive evidence, though the hints are very suggestive.
But since you're including composers, such as Neil (which you misspelled)
Haverstick, you should certainly include the two Renaissance composers known
to have used 19-tET. One of them is Costeley. Margo, who is the other?
