Paul,
Sorry to be far off rotary engine subject, but I want to invite everyone on the list to see me on TV!  I'll be on the TV show BattleBots on Comedy Central Network Tuesday 1/22/02 at 10 PM with my combat robot.  It's something we named "Short Order Chef", weights in at 120 lbs. and has a pneumatic flipper arm.  If you haven't heard of them, BattleBots is kind of a demolition derby of radio controlled vehicles (bots) that go at it sumo style in a 40 by 40 foot arena.
Fellow lister Brian Trubee assisted in the construction by arranging the purchase of 7075 Aluminum and Titanium sheets from Boeing Surplus Store which he then shipped to me.  Thanks Brian!  This was used to make the shell and bottom armor.
That's all for now.  Thanks for watching...

No kidding. Great Mark. I'll  be sure to watch tomorrow night. BTW Chrissi might be on 
Junk Yard Wars if she agrees and if certain other things come together. We got a lot of
potential TV stars on here.
