Hubert,
Don't feel badly about dropping things. You have several years on me and I
have already noticed how easy it is to drop things. Maybe they make an
anti-drop pill, something like Viagra® that can help us old people. I have
to be careful about dropping things in my shop as they seem to vanish into a
black hole or something!. Maybe if I cleared out 30 years of floor mess it
would help, but that would only allow round objects to roll farther into the
black hole and be more difficult to locate. I really ought to be down in
the shop working on my next project for a possible LSOR article, but here I
sit pecking away at the keyboard.
Jesse in icy but melting thank goodness, Troy, TN USA.
