Pictures? Where??

- Brent

[ Brent and others not getting (but wanting) the pictures -- I actually
have two lists, the main tesla coil list, and the image list.  When you
subscribe, I ask if you can handle large files.  If you can, I put you on
the list and you will get images.  If not, you don't.  If you can get large
files, and didn't get the pictures, let me know and I'll rectify the
problem. (mail to chip-at-pupman-dot-com)  -- Chip]
