Wrong??? No way.
I'm just in awe of anyone who can quote stuff like this from memory worship

Thanks Keeno but there really is nothing worthy of awe. I may have the ability to remember inane facts, quotes and numbers etc but I have total deficiencies in other areas, so it kind of balances it out. lol

Ah, you have a man brain smile My trouble is mine is bunged full of useless trivia none of which sounds impressive when you drop it into a conversation....but quoting philosophers now that sounds good. :worship:

I thought Kiss would answer my question ( etc.) but it looks like she's gone offline, so I'll tell you - if you multiply the frequency of a note by this number you get the note one semitone above it. Really boring and geeky, eh!

Re:
The equal tempered scale has each note spaced such that the next highest note is the 12th root of two times the next lowest note in the scale. We take the octave and break it up into 12 equal multiplicative steps.
x12 = 2
x = is the multiplier between adjacent notes on the scale.

Re: Cookies
Why does a cookie crumble? Using a laser beam to closely monitor the fault lines of cookies emerging from an oven, a doctoral student appears to have figured out how bakers can stop disappointing their customers by shipping crumbled ones.
The discovery, published in the Institute of Physics (IOP) journal Measurement Science and Technology, could result in the perfect cookie. See Saleem, Q.; Wildman, R. D.; Huntley J. M.; and Whitworth, M. B. 2003, "A novel application of speckle interferometry for the measurement of strain distributions in semi-sweet biscuits," Meas. Sci. Technol. 14, 2027-2033.
Customers who find crumbled cookies in their packages often blame mishandling by the manufacturer, the shipping company or workers who load supermarket shelves. But that's not what Qasim Saleem, a doctoral student in mechanical engineering, and his colleagues discovered when they applied the complex and exalted field of physics to the mundane matter of cookies.
Saleem and his colleagues closely monitored the surface of cookies as they cooled to room temperature. Using a laser beam, they followed the tiny deformations that evolve as the cookie picks up moisture around the rim, which causes it to expand, while losing mois-ture at the center, which causes it to contract. The resulting strains can pull the cookie apart, or leave it more vulnerable to breakage before purchase.
"We now have a greater understanding of why biscuits develop cracks shortly after being baked," Saleem said. He said the discovery should help cookie manufacturers adjust the humidity and temperature of their production lines to minimize cracking.

I should have known you would either know the answer or find it! You're too smart for this place! But what is really sad is that I didn't have to calculate the 12th root of 2 - I remembered it!
