When you set up a web page, be sure to cross-index by as large a variety of keywords as possible. 2. When you do keyword searches, use a lot of related words. In this case, stopping with "microtonality" alone, the fact that he didn't find much doesn't particularly surprise me. He should use words like "microtone", "microtonal", "meantone", "quartertone", "comma", "Partch", "intonation", "tuning", "scale", "scales", "cent" (that of course will net a lot more spam than fish), and such words.
