What about tuning to 439.8229715 because it is 140 times pi and therefore it is in more harmony with the circularity of vinyl records and the shape of pizzas? :D

I think i have just been out-grumped.

I wasn't thinking the same thing at all, no sir, not me.
Being a life-long musician with a lifelong passion for the natural sciences, this kind of thing just really gets on my nerves.

Historic tunings used A tuned to anything from 400 to 450 Hz and beyond, BTW.

For general reference, I calculate this as 31.7667 cents, so am thinking that 32 cents will be the best setting.

Comments? Anyone else tested this out?
