But, and it was a big BUT, I never really understood the physics(?) of what I was doing…..I knew that it worked, but I didn’t really know how or why. I found this to be rather depressing when I bothered to think about it…..bit like foolish NCOs telling recruits that they’re not paid to think, only to do.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-US'>As ever, I appealed to the Wise Ones and I got some very helpful advice which I assimilated until I did, for the moment at least, understand. Having done that, I cobbled together an article for our local club magazine which I have the cheek to attach here. The “how to do the procedure” bit is largely mine; the explanation of where/why and how the end float is to be found is largely Steve’s. The errors are all mine. Some of you Wiser Ones will recognize your own words.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-US'>The achievement of the article, as well as boring the bejasus out of our readership, was getting the process to stick in my mind….which it has done.
