I'll just add that there are a couple of interesting articles on this
topic by Clark Fobes, at:

http://www.woodwind.org/clarinet/Equipment/Intonation.html
And
http://www.clarkwfobes.com/Tuning%20article/Tuning%20the%20Clarinet%20fo
r%20PS.htm

Walter rightly pointed out that there are many discussions of this issue
in the archives. Go to:

http://www.woodwind.org/Databases/LogsIndex/index.html

And enter "selmer intonation" in the search box, just for an example.
