I think the most illuminating test would be between a Fujan and a Gluzman of the same size/angle, as the Gluzman appears to BE the Fujan with a traditional head. However, unless someone owns both, that seems like a potentially... awkward scientific collaboration. <g> Thanks for your comments, -kurt -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
