Whats the 411(information for those not from USA) on the 432? Apparently any multiple of 432 Hz results in a new more complex geometric pattern.
didn't note much at wiki, but the second link has a lot more on 432, including ancient history, than what i've posted below.

Music & 432
* 432 times 432 = 186624 the classic speed of light is 186400 miles/second, a difference of .001201.
* E=mc2 ---Einstein's famous equation of energy and matter - - where E= energy, m = matter, and c = the universal constant speed of light.
The speed of light in 1983 was generally accepted to be 186,291 miles per second in a vacuum so 432 as the square root of the speed of light should only experience the usual suspects as skeptics. This number converted by the pyramid inch is 186,496. ( 186,291 [accepted speed of light in a vacuum per 1983 agreement] x 1.0011)

The distance from the center of the earth to the average height of the atmosphere. This value is given as 4320 arc-minutes, which harmonically can be reduce down to 432 the fundamental vibration for the sixth node in the octave

The archaic Egyptian instruments that have been unearthed, so far, are largely tuned to 432 hz. In ancient Greece (the school book original place for music) their instruments were predominantly tuned at 432 hz. Within the archaic Greek Eleusenian Mysteries, Orpheus is the god of music, death and rebirth, and was the keeper of the Ambrosia and the music of transformation (his instruments were tuned at 432 hz).

What is everyone's opinion on this phenomena? I've done some reading on this recently and there are many mathematical links between 432 and the US system of units.
Some conspiracy theorists believe that there was a push by the elite to hide this knowledge, whatever it holds. Their two strongest claims I recall are that after Napoleon studied the pyramids is when he introduced the metric system, and in 1953 A-440 hz was standardized as concert pitch.
I'll try to post some useful links when I find them again.
