Thanks, George-

Very glad to be back.

A Schmidt! I have ALWAYS wanted to do a corrector plate, having the cocky
idea that they are probably child's play, all of the myths notwithstanding.
Also, I  found a long time ago that a Cass secondary is not too far away
from being child's play, either; I believe the secret to figuring is to just
have a clear idea of the actual curve at any one time; then one knows
exactly where to go next. Always has worked for me (except for my long time
bane; even Bob Goff, bless him, wherever he is (Valhalla, perhaps? "Only
great heroes go to Valhalla...from "The Vikings", Kirk Douglas, Tony
Curtiss)- couldn't show me the way out of chronic TUE). I used to TRY to get
TDE- couldn't do it!

Anyway, I'm sure goad to be back, George, all-

Davey
