Yow, "eigenmonzo," eh? Well, congratulations to Monz for having his name in a new word, sort of like having a street named after you or something. I think Einstein once said something to the effect that a great scientific theory should be able to be understood by a child, or it wasn't worth much. I of course agree, we've been chatting about this on MMM. The more accessible knowledge is for everyone, the better, I'd like for as many people as possible to be involved with the world of tunings...Hstick

That, of course, has the consequence that Einstein made no great
scientific discoveries.
