    2. Accidental
    3. Musical Keyboard
    4. Piano

    I didn't see a "Grand Piano" entry in Wiki.

    Heheh, I had a similar idea. You could even use the wikipedia archive and do it really quick offline. That'd be cheating though.

    have fun with that one I'm finding it helps to look at the end result too and see what it's related to, then compare that to what the starting point is related to and work in from both sides. but this is cool, it's amazing how you can jump to totally disparate topics within 5 or 6 clicks.

    Haha, yup. And yeah, I've also found that working from both ends works best. I decided I should waste much time on this at work though, so I won't really be looking at it till I get home.
