Bert, all,

What you say Bert is all very true.  Your many TC postings from the past
are also extremely valuable, well written, and clear.  I spoke about
Fr. Tom's work because he was specially working on the "Guide" as he
called it.  Of course a multitude of folks have written important and
excellent posts to the list over the years.

Someone mentioned gearing the FAQ towards the construction of
a specific TC design.  I like this idea, but the problem is that a 
builder might not be able to find the exact components.  To solve this
problem, plans for a number of differing TC designs could be presented,
along with the basic theory for those who want it, or want to build their
own TC design from scratch.

Cheers,
John Freau
