I'd love to laugh at that comment Roderick, but I'd wager I own more unread books than you do.  |

SDR, that final design is the one I like. I think the wall and hexagonal form contain it in a pleasing way. I'm hoping to get a copy of the article that pmahoney published which sounds like it has all ... |
