Nicely executed? Bollocks, it's still attached. Anyone can see that.
It's nice dimensionality and that is the most important thing, now you just need to remove the stuff you don't like and it is finished no? :D

Executed? Still attached? Marie Antoinette?

Oh dear. I think my feeble attempts at humour are really missing the mark today. My daughters are right ...

Don't worry about the Sandgropers Matthew.

They're 2 hours slower than the rest of us.

Actually i think he might even be one of the first. He's been at it since the seventies ...

Rick's probably not aware that we are a nation of avid home brewers and therefore, the importance of us understanding the specific gravity of water simply cannot be overstated. After all, it is the very mark every self respecting Aussie brewmeister seeks to avoid and is indeed what makes beers like Budweiser soo unpalatable to us.

I guess this is the very reason why 'Understanding and Using the Hydrometer 101' is on the curriculum for preschoolers here before 'Beer, it's use and Function within a Modern Progressive Society' even gets a look in, and I guess that really is how it should be when you stop to think about it. It's all about priorities :D 8)

Kim,
Budweiser or Buttwiper as I call it is indeed nasty. FWI Anheuser Busch uses formaldhyde to give the beer an artifical head. Yummy....Drink up m8; you got the good stuff over there.

Well, as long as we're divulging national secrets, I'll give up the formula for the USA xylem marinade:

1 part Kangaroo Rat sweat
3 parts tears of a clown
5 parts geyser water from Old Faithful
and a dash of Kentucky moonshine
