It's a clue for Jack Bauer. When you hit F sharp it explodes.

I was hoping it could be the lost Babe Ruth piano -- the one he allegedly threw into a pond back in 1918 or so, perhaps lubricated by alcohol. (Dave wrote a piece on it a few years back.) But alas it's in the wrong spot in Massachusetts and it's in good condition.

So...if a piano concerto is played in the woods, and there's no one around to hear it, does the tree fall whilst the bear is sh!tting?

"GROWWWWLLLL!"
"Eeep! Arrrrrrgh"...
Case closed.

Mama Bear: "baby bear, go practice your scales now"
Baby Bear, winking at Goldilocks: "I can't Mama Bear, my piano is all gone."

ah, it could be done with one person. you just need a truck (wheels mounted on two-by fours) of the right size. i moved my own piano myself more than once, and once took an upright (larger version) up three flights of fire escape with one other fella.
