Perfect Pitch

Apparently having perfect pitch has nothing to do with musical talent and more to do with
recognizing sound frequencies. When all of the individual tones of the western music scale are recognizes in the same way that you recognize the people that you are always around, you have perfect pitch. Can it be taught? Well the thing is, you teach yourself by the same method that you teach yourself to recognize things. When you close your eyes, can you tell the difference between the sound of a car going by and the sound of a jet flying over? The faculty that allows you to differentiate between the two is the same faculty that you for perfect pitch. In other words, you already have perfect pitch.
