The comment on personal body temperature is interesting. I've noticed that,
when playing in cold or erratically heated rooms (all too common in this
country), the <relationships> between the pitches of woodwind players who
have habitual tendencies to play sharp or flat seem to stay the same. Players
who are commonly sharp are still sharp (relatively) when all the woodwind is
flat.
