THIS THREAD IS MINE MINE MINE!!!!!

Sorry, ;-)

Yes Padre, please give us tehe info.

oops, but that typo is too good to remove...

Steve, please continue - it looks like what BillD mentions - it looks related to what I was looking for.

Sorry pavane, just jesting a little, but it is probably worth keeping your great idea seperate from what I was originally on about - but do give us the thread name & id here (in a blue clicky)

The Parsons code mentioned by Bill D is similar to what I was talking about, but I was looking for that particular book, which is doubtless out of print now - it referenced tunes before 1970, as it was printed sometime around or before then - I found it in the early 1970's and it was an old book then.

Helen, I'll follow up on your line later.
