Well, I got the tempo close with tapping.
I did taps both from the ReaAccess H key, and with left clicking while 
focused on tap tempo at the number pad, to learn if there was any 
difference, both about the same.
Once you get close you can raise or lower the tempo number 1 bpm, but it 
still drifted off.
Maybe the original tempo of the track I was trying to sync had been 
moved away from whole bpm numbers, like it was actually 128.3 bpm or 
some such thing.
Audio quantize is in there somewhere, which solves the problem.
