Ok so there is a point of first contact after which the object begins
"growing" into the stationary frame. What happens after the point of first
contact doesn't shift the point of first contact.

I knew a biology professor in college who was trying to blind guppies
without killing the poor things. He came up with a simple technique, at a
time when other people were trying to make custom-fitting contact lenses
for guppies, or something like that. I may be exaggerat
Alan,
It is suspicious. Glad you called.
However, as for the circuit - extrapolating from the info on their site
seems to indicate that "pyroelectric" pulses occur in the modules and these
are fed back to the cell for some kind of a positive feedback loop.
Perhaps a sharp HV pulse, fed
