my take on torque, ad infinitum ................

Ooh, another weeks worth of mail on that one, thanks!  I say, either 258 
or 330, depending on whether it is an African or European pinhead.

If you were paying attention you would have noticed that 1. a consensus 
has developed, mostly, and is backed by a deeper understanding of what 
is happening; 2. at least one lister has already gone out to the vise 
and *done* the empirical testing; 3. the rest of us are having fun, 
talking about it, and playing with the fast new server's ability to make 
this like a real conversation, rather than transatlantic surface mail.

So lighten up...
