Now that you mention it, I recall reading about that one, too.  Again,

thirds are more in tune than the 12, 19, or 22 tone scales, while fifths

are less in tune than the 12 tone scale, but more in tune than the 19

and 22 tone scales (this from some quick calculation in a spreadsheet).

Of course, the more notes you have in an octave, the more difficult it

will be to play on any instrument in real time.
