      Sent. “Last shot was little to the right.”
      Received. “Fearfully hot here. Several men sunstruck. Bullets whiz like fun. Have ceased firing for awhile, the guns are so hot."

                did you ever get the results of this study worked out? I would love to see them.
                I'm still working on this. Haven't been able to work on this for awhile, to busy with school work and Veterinary School stuff. If I get some free time coming up soon, I'm planning on working on it.

                              It is interesting that the corn diet is mentioned as a cause of the rapid upsize of US people in the following decades. I am guessing it happened to Europeans a tad slower.
                              Look forward with interest to the results.
