Dear Mike: Thank you for putting things in perspective.
I can see from the "chat" (hope that wasn't offensive to the chatees) that the forum members are not casual experimenters. I may opt to tap their individual expertise for story purposes, but right now I have more angles than I can possibly cover in one article. I am contemplating, if this all comes together the way I feel it will, to expand this into a book as well. Regards, Bill Missett ----- Original Message ----- From: M. G.
