Abstract: (WSP)
It is pointed out that the renewed value of tau mass, mr=1777 MeV, is in excellent agreement with the prediction mr=1776.97 MeV from a charged lepton mass formula based on an SU(3)-family nonet scheme. As an extension of the scenario, neutrino mixing angles, \sin \,\theta _{c\mu } \simeq \left( {{1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} \right)\sqrt {{{m_c } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{m_c } {m_\mu }}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {m_\mu }}} and so on, are speculated.
