Conflating the terms is understandable, because many of the terms were used interchangeably. The big mistake they made was in not understanding that using the terms interchangeably is the exact opposite of conflation, and that the result of their system would be that we would wind up with fewer differences, not more; uniform, not diverse. However the research itself is right, I think, bass lute tuned physically up or "imagined" as up by transposition. The information is in the article, just ignored in the conclusions. dt -- References 1. mailto:r.turov...@verizon.net 2. mailto:vidan...@sbcglobal.net 3. http://lute-cs.dartmouth.edu/ 4. mailto:lute@cs.dartmouth.edu To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
