Ron- While I may be pandering to your unhealthy dependence upon the list, I would like to reassure you that you are not the singular object of technotauntitus. Since your previous post at 3:02 pm (Re: bridge caps), there have only been 4 other posts, which I have included below. I hope you get this.

Ron N">> BZZZZZZ!! Wrong answer...unfair semantical construction and impeachable maliceaforethought........ GUilty as charged, you cannot call a friend, ..do not pass go, do not collect...well you get the picture:-) Besides even if the pins did leach out energy they are still attached to the bridge and that energy would 'still' be reflected by the bridge/ board wouldn't it? Or morphing Dels terms 'transducted'........say, maybe this is the source of some of the 'mysterious' false beats we run into......you know 'out of phase' bridge pin lengths.

Yes, and not a very good way at that. >> Couldn't agree more about the mechanical structure.
