==The Interval of Honor==
 
Nominations for Interval of Honor were:
 
0. 17/13
1. 7/6 4-5 cents flat
2. pi/3
3. pi/e
4. 1/1 (the unison)
5. 2 ^ (phi / (4 * phi + 2)), approx. 229.18 cents
 
The judges were at first engaged in an intense debate on whether 1/1 (the unison) did indeed count as an interval. Perhaps realizing that it would be much too controversial for such a non-controversial holiday as MMMDay, and realizing that all they had was a five-sided die, they set out to decide between the remainder of them. At first an impassioned plea for 2 ^ (phi / (4 * phi + 2)) swayed many of the judges hearts, but
the sensation passed, it would seem, and they eventually reached a consensus for 17/13 (approximately 464.427748 cents).
 
===Yes, Here's Your Interval of Honor: a frequency factor of Seventeen Thirteenths,===
===**sing its praises,**===
===**go ahead and learn to sing it, literally,**===
===**learn of its most inner secrets (if you dare),**===
===**cherish it for a full twenty-four hours,**===
===**and at the end of the day,**===
===**pretend that you know everything there is to know about 17/13.**===
 
And this is where I realized that perhaps I'm not qualified to write 17/13 an honorary poem.
 
At any rate, the public is outraged at the decision. The Bureau of Intervals stands accused of corruption, bribe-taking, rationalism, indeterminacy, etc. by all sorts of interest groups. Yet the J.I. Network (inexplicably) does not join in the mudslinging.</pre></div>

Lemba Galatsia is the latest result of my explorations into lemba temperament (named after a fictional island). Lemba was one of many 7-limit temperaments included in a long list that Gene Ward Smith detailed on the tuning-math list. At the time I referred to it simply as &amp;quot;Number 82&amp;quot;. I'd been looking around for useful temperaments that may have been overlooked, and this one immediately attracted my attention. It has a useful 10-note basic scale, and two identical periods in the octave (it repeats at the tritone). Since 50/49 is tempered out, the tritone can represent either 7/5 or 10/7.&lt;br /&gt;
