[Harp-L] Blues scale vs. Pentatonic scale

The bone of contention here seems to be the use of the word "minor"
within A Blues Scale, which is, admittedly a misnomer caused by
writing what I wrote rapidly. But I would say that the correction is
obfuscatory and a bit fussy. Since you added one more blues scale,
why not add the other ten.

===============================================

My main correction was not about the use of the word "minor" but to 
correct the error in spelling the scale.  Just to be clear, and not 
just "fussy," Vince spelled the A blues scale as follows:

A C D Db E G A

My main point is that the Db should be a D#:

A C D D# E G A

I then spelled the blues scale starting on C because it more clearly 
shows, with flat signs, the flat 3rd and 7th degrees.

If this is obfuscatory, I apologize.
