[78-L] Waveforms

[neechevoneeznayou at gmail.com]

Thanks Wes, Doug, Bob, Tom, and EVERYONE who responded, even if all you 
did was argue amongst yourselves.

There is so much that gets discussed on this list, no one is going to be 
interested in all those topics. I know I am not. If they are not 
interested, they don't have to read. That's what subject lines are for.

Thanks again everyone,

joe salerno
