A parabaloid, that is. Here are the vitals. Her name is Torus/Prospec 
18-81-032803. Tori's focal length is 81.9-inches. She has a P-V of 0.154, an 
RMS of 0.022 and a Strehl ratio of 0.981.

Dad is resting well and expects his new baby to arrive home at the end of the 
month. My observing buddy wants to know, "Does she have a sister?" ;o)

Seriously, I just got word from James Mulherin at Torus/Prospec that the mirror 
selected for my (soon to be completed) 18-inch Obsession is serial number 
18-81-032803. Test images and specs can be found at 
http://www.prospecmirrors.com/test_data.php.

Bill in Flagstaff
