Actually, Paul, we have more than one university in MS, & while Ole Miss
excels at producing lawyers & award winning authors, that ain't the one
you want for tech stuff. Try Mississippi State U. Commonly known as a
'cow college,' but has been home to some of the best minds in
aeronautics.

Thank you very much Charlie. I have been a fan of their work since
1966 but it has been awhile since I have read my collection of
aviation tech  papers from that fine institution. I will try
to remember the correct name in the future.
