[ATM] Theories on what causes TDE

[gfbrandenburg at yahoo.com (Guy Brandenburg)]

Bob,

What if you have very large hands and a very small
mirror (6 inches or smaller)? What do you do then? I
can barely fit a total of 4 fingers on mirrors like
that (thumb + large finger on each hand; perhaps the
index finger near the center). Would it help to use
some blocking pitch to affix a handle of some sort on
the back? Has anybody tried this?

By the way, I think I am now up to 7 mutually
contradictory reasons for a TDE.
