Hey Bert (and D.C.),I should have mentioned that I had an alterior motive for going to D.C.'s place inWisconsin. I was up there for the '06 teslathon, and he's got A LOT of neat "toys" in his shop. I kinda hoped to get there again to have another look! I missed out on '07's 'thon because of a wedding. This time I actually got invited as a guest, rather than having to videotape it, so I couldn't pass it up. AND, I keep contemplating getting a pig for myself, if I can figure out the logistics of using it at home, as well as fabricating a ballast, rearranging my garage (it's a little too much for using in the basement, I think), and most importantly of all, temporarily hiding it from, or justifying to, my charming, delightful and wonderfully understanding wife (that said, just in case she sees my email :) .
