         Re: GWCAD —Andy Lynch
     <whew> Wow. Downloaded all three of your "proof of concept" executables... Beautiful work. I'll try to figure out something else to say later... I'm kind of speechless.

      (...) This was actually a misfeature, but it's a convoluted story to explain. I accidentally accomplished what I at first set out to do. :) It kinda looks like the car is decloaking. :) -Gary (23 years ago, 10-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
