try to spell the gentleman's name without looking it up, I had also forgotten
the source of the edge-forward description (I'm not 25 any more and have one
or two things preying on my mind). Perhaps a call to John Heath with a
question as to Mr. Padilla's stroke dynamics in light of the ongoing
discussion would be in order? John Heath, are you out there?
