add link to concept of vanish / temper out

* {{vector|13 -10 0 1}} = {{vector|-6 2 0 1}} - {{vector|-19 12 0 0}}
* {{vector|13 -10 0 1}} = {{vector|-6 2 0 1}} - {{vector|-19 12 0 0}}


These two basis matrices are the comma bases dual to the 7-limit [[uniform map]]s for 12-ET and 19-ET, respectively. {{vector|4 -4 1 0}} is the  meantone comma and {{vector|13 -10 0 1}} is Harrison's comma, so we can say that both of these temperaments temper out both of these commas.
