Thanks to Didier for pointing out that the last note of the Harmonic-17 scale is 32/17 (not 34/17). And I should have 18/17 (instead of my dyslexic 17/18). Paul Hahn is right to point out a Perfect Fifth from 17/10, but I hadn't included this interval in my original list, though it is certainly implied by my 20/17. Are there other intervals that _scream_ to be included?
