Love your attitude Doc! We all can learn from it!
I do envy those with perfect pitch. I have a friend who is blind and can tell you instantly any or all notes in a chord, or even a just a fistful of random notes. He said he can best define the gift as seeing the notes as we see colors. Every one has a unique identity and doesn't sound like any of the others. Right!
He also told me that it is sort of a curse as well, because if there is an off note anywhere it jumps out at him like a snake.
