	Hi all,

	I'm in the process of finishing up my first coil, and I have come to
the RF ground part.  I had intended to use a copper grounding rod, but
Mom doesn't like the idea of a copper strap detracting from her flower
garden, so Dad suggested I use the cold water line coming into the
house.  What has me confused is that some coilers on the 'net do indeed
use a water pipe as a ground, yet some directions I downloaded say
specifically "DON'T USE A COLD WATER LINE".  What gives?

	Thanks!

	Ross
