I am surprised you haven't already John.  If there is one thing I have 
learned during my getting to be lengthy time on this list, is that 
regardless of how exotic the problem may be to one, someone else has 
seen it and fixed it already.  I suspect as a group, you folks amaze me 
far more often than my purely electronics comments do for any or all of 
you.  The combined knowledge of this group is Mensa grade or better.

The bottom line is that if the machine knows where it is, you can run it 
to an arbitray position very close to home.  At its best rapids speed, 
doing it safely, so a new bootup home operation needs only the few 
seconds to confirm it even if its at creep speeds.  At the end of the 
week, that could add an hours worth of production time to the machine if 
its a 20 foot bed model.  In a busy shop, thats pure money.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
