Hi Pat,

You ask (concerning B double flat)

The notes in a C diminished chord would be played as C Eb Gb A.  But the 
problem is that it really isn't A - it's B lowered two half steps. The 
symmetry of the diminished chord is preserved by doing that.  Bbb looks like 
A but it really isn't.  It's sort of like Cb (which looks like B but really 
isn't).

And regarding the "detuned washboard" -- It doesn't happen to my washboard - 
I always keep it tuned with my special ball peen hammer!

Cheers,

Bill "of course I could be wrong" Gunter
