Ira,

"He is no fan of interial reels either."
            Can I ask what 'interial' is? Is that the site of its
base(inside) or a reference to the reel function?

"Also, he thought 3 inches of tempurfoam is not adequate for safely passing
the 19g vertical acceleration test."
            I haven't been around to the back to check contours, but I
suspect my posterior would be content with the quality of 1 to 1-1/2 inches
of that expensive  cushioning - on top of stiffer underlayers of course. I
wonder what the good perfesser would think of Graham Singleton's
consideration that a fair depth of foam 'worms' a la beanbag principle had
saved his 'bacon' on pranging?
Nervously,
Ferg A064
