     Tom, that is all I was objecting to . Remember who you are, and be more 
careful what you say. In this case it makes no difference, since nobody has
the balls to try it where they think they need it anyway.

     When I can not get any further on open circuit, I will try semiclosed, and
if that does not work I will get one of Gavin's. If that kills me, too
bad. So far, my friends and I are the only ones out there right now
so it really makes no difference. 

      The only thing I am doing right now in the way of advancing my technology
is to call my orthopedic surgeon and tell him I want a trim job on the left
knee, injured in college, so I can get more intensity in my workouts, so 
I can use even less gas. When anyone else is willing to go to lengths like
that, I will listen to them. 

       There is no magic carpet that will level the playing field between
our team and anyone else, because whatever comes along, we will hit it
harder, longer and further and will not quit until we do. 

       When sombody else even gives it a try, then they can tell
us how to do it better, but so far, that has not occurred, burt there
is no lack of strong advice. -G
