Matt . . . needs to go to sleep. Maybe I shouldn't have tried to start this
after the trip to the zoo today.

| Took me ~8 hours total; had I worked straight through, blindness would have resulted. Would have been done sooner had I not used a wrong shade of grey early on. Finished the 'hammerhead' in ~2 hours then went to FL for the Orange Bowl. If you think (...) (23 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.starwars)
