Paul,

I must say your work is the finest most of us has seen on the web. Even some of the images you are unhappy with, but post them anyways because we expect you to, are simply outstanding to say the least...Congratulations again for a job well done. From one of the many CN members, located in the Northern Hemisphere, you have inspired to aquire one of those Peltier Systems you use. I'm still waiting for the 5" Mak model...

Clear skies,
Larry

Thank you all for the kind words. I am glad my particular cooling system is being looked at by some of you chaps. Once again thanks to Bird for his great ideas which has started this revolution.

Yeah, if there was a category for "most consistently excellent" you would be the winner by several lightyears!
