I had to access The Wreck via Google Groups today, because my news
server is down. Somehow it posted under my old name Sandman. (my addy
didn't change) I have tried to fix the nickname issue and it sure as
heck wasn't meant to confuse anybody.
Sorry if this caused any inconvenience to anybody and I highly doubt it
did. <G>

You are correct. My mistake. <G>
What I meant to say was;
NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is
surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons
are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons
are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical
devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons....
Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.

I love obscure references and people who get them. Nobody had to
mention a snake once.

Anyone got any advice on opening coconuts with a bandsaw ? I saw a
Victorian "Faberge egg" made from one recently, and I want to recreate
it. Equally advice on good surface fiishing techniques for cocnut.
Obviously I'll need a nice smooth finish on it, so as not to loose too
much airspeed.
