Psycology of coiling: was JavaTC Tuning Suggestion now a questionScot, 
all,  I've never really thought about the psycology of why we coilers 
like to make ever bigger sparks but I'd say the fireworks analogy is 
probably not too far off base. I suppose most of us are competitive to 
varying degrees and it gives one bragging rights to say "Guess how long 
of a spark my coil can make with only X kVA input?" Just like a pro 
golfer would boast proudly of shoot- ing under a 65 on 18 holes or a 
baseball player would boast if he batted an average of .600 for the 
season, ect. Guess this is starting to drift OT but does that make any 
sense?....  David  ----- Original Message ----- From: "bunnykiller"
