          heh.. I think that's almost it.. the helix should touch the ground though. (the two lowest points of the helix-- resulting in the two end profile lines being on a horizontal plane.

          I'm about 20 minutes away from a computer.. itching to try it myself now

                              Guy keeps beatin' around the bush.

                              So far you got a tough sell.

                              And most of the take goes to your subcontractors,

                              Rich and those perhaps less clairvoyant. hem.

                              We'll see what the morrow brings.
