In about the sixteenth or seventeenth century a mathematician questioned the validity of the so-called 'Pythagorean comma'. Does anybody know who this scientist was, and how he got to questioning the theory? Thank you for your reactions, preferably to my Email address. greetings, Ruud Muschter the Netherlands muschter@pi.net
