measuring downbearing on Kaps piani?

Hi Julia,

Try just saying "I'm going to treat the block". Here is why I don't use the
term "dope". (pianos are not "high" or "ignorant")

*grin*

dope

n 1: street names for marijuana [syn: pot, grass, green goddess, weed,
gage, sess, sens, smoke, skunk, locoweed, Mary Jane] 2: an ignorant or
foolish person [syn: dumbbell, dummy, boob, booby, pinhead] 3: carbonated
drink flavored with extract from Kola nuts (`dope' is a southernism in the
United States) [syn: cola] 4: slang terms for inside information; "is that
the straight dope?" [syn: poop, the skinny, low-down] v 1: take drugs to
improve one's athletic performance 2: add impurities to (a semiconductor)
in order to produce or modify its properties; "The resistors have been
doped" 3: give a narcotic to; "The athletes were dope by the coach before
the race" [syn: dope up]
