John Thaden!
Here is my 7-limit tuning which you can find more on at
http://www.anaphoria.com/centaur.html
if we treat A=440 as 1 (as opposed to C) we have
1=0
1#= -15.5
2= 4
2#= 15
3= 0.1
4= 19.5
4#= -11.5
5= 2
5#= 13.7
6= -1.8
6#= 17.6
7= - 19.4

Just a quick thanks to all who responded with 'cents-deviation' versions of
various tunings. I can't wait to get home and try them!
