Subject: Re: DIR FAQ
Tod, you're killing me. The pockets are sewn to a piece of neopreme
which is then pressure glued to the trilam. Any discussion of DIR needs
to start with backup reg and build from there. Maybe everyone else can
add to and refine your list and it can build to a nice piece. I will
jump in for minutia.

Rewmove the comments each time and incorporate them into the list so the
email does not get huge.
