Which List for "Meta-Theory"?

I'm reading Partch's Genesis book, and am already
running into stuff I don't agree with, and I'm VERY
LEERY of the whole lattice diagram concept in
general. Is this list OK for discussing that or
should I post on the other list regarding tuning math?
Thanks.

Hold on - are you talking about lattices or tonality diamonds? Very
different things. Either is okay to discuss on the tuning list,
though.

I don't recall any lattice diagrams in Partch.

Me either. As Keenan suggested, perhaps Bill is talking
about the tonality diamond?

Partch got the idea from Max Meyer, but apparently it
goes back at least to the Pythagoreans.
