Steve,
Good point. Looking about it from the head end, there is a story
from the French Revolution where a prominent scientist who had been
condemned to death on the guillotine decided to make the most of it in the
interests of science. He arranged for his assistant to count the number of
time he could blink his eyes when the deed was done. It was 16 IIRC.
Regards, John Hurst.
