Very good find! :
Liked reading to it a lot, but then again I'm weird.
while I was looking up thinks about "classical" or "Baroque" tunings I ran into this article and thought it was a cool read so I thought I would share it with my fellow fretters so we could gain a little insight into how our minds "see" things about our music.

Interesting! I must be weird too !
I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009
The most interesting statement is the claim that absolute pitch might be a detriment to musicians. The reasoning is that transposition is an important ability. I don't know if I believe that, but it is an intriguing claim.

Very nice find. I'll join the nerdly or weird that like this sort of thing. :-)

I read a couple of paragraphs and couldn't understand why I found it interesting.
Then I looked in the mirror.
