Somebody posted a pastebin that showed large jumps in "some" variable.  
I was never real clear
what that column in the file was showing, but was afraid it was showing 
very large jumps in the
recorded velocity.  Since this was scaled counts and not raw counts, I 
couldn't really tell if that
was just the typical sampling jitter seen in an encoder delta reading or 
somthing more serious.
I did see jumps of +/- 50 to 100% in the data from sample to sample, so 
I was thinking it was
a sign of serious problems in reading the encoder signal.  Now that I 
realize it is scaled, I understand
I really don't know WHAT that data meant.

Yes, I think that would be much better.
