Yes, we are in our own special pseudo sphere over here (Australia)

Our 240v grounding standards are much stricter over here than yours, meaning those of us that use humbuckers (not me if I can help it) use them by choice not by necessity

Since everything is based off of 440 best we can do is write songs that soothe the savage beast and the soul.

Now try listening to Killswitch Engage or Breaking Benjamin.

Ravi Shankar told Musician magazine that he likes to tune his sitar to the surf. While touring, he would use the room air conditioner.
I wonder which he found more natural to his purposes (whether or not they were to align with the universe), 60 hz or or his native 50? Would he tune sharp in America?

Flatitude...Thread definitely should have ended with Flatitude. Nothing more to say from that point, really.
