UNFORTUNATELY (fortunately from my employees perspective), I suddenly

If we could make these x-ray optics to be sold for $20,000 each, well,
$20,000 times 10,000 units is a big amount of money, enough to get
venture capital types interested. *Kinda looks as if my idle time will

I'm sure the women of america and their physicians will have a difficult
time deciding from one of your cheap rube goldberg substitutions for
standard mammography gear, and the non-mammographic research and devices
being developed at the reputable Dartmouth School of Medicine.

Probably similar to what Cardinal Bellarmine told Galileo.
Dartmouth being the Rome Church.

Halyards against masts(not shrouds), a noise I quickly stop hearing
although it drives others crazy. Most of the time you can minimize it
simply by pulling the halyard tight. I always forget to do this.
