Shamus, I knew there would be a light at the end of the tunnel, and with my brain powering it, it was a 5 watt bulb. I read these articles on Hanks place, then you showed that other picture. I went back and rereread the academy, and lo and behold, a faint glow in the darkness. You and several others talked about CARD, but I figured it was something in the UK. Your strip board is something that threw me off a bit. Is that the same as balsa wood strips?
I know the alkternative is not very enticing, but don't get old. You lined everything out as simple as can be, even drew pictures, and see how long it took me to get it. Live and learn, but it sure does slow the learning. That grimy green house with a tin roof, to me, was the epitome of reality and real life.
Oh well. I did finally get it. I can't see any way you could have made it any plainer. I'm not really slow, mind you, but I have 3 hours on-the-job training before every meal so I can find my mouth.
Later
