Subject: A Hemiwuerschmidt scale

If I combine shell 0, the unison, with shells 1, 2 and 3, I get a
symmetrical scale of 43 notes which turns out to be an excellent
candidate for tempering by the hemiwuerschmidt temperament (covered by
68, 99 and 130.) This has 41 notes since the two steps of size
2401/2400 in it are nuked. Here it is in TOP tuning:
