Dave,
It is truly a small world. You are the second person in two days that I know and have "re-met" on the SMC forum. The other guy works with me at Mayo.
Obviously I didn't spend enough time talking with you at the meeting. We should get together and admire each other's stuff.
Thanks for the kind word about the table. I am really just a hack. Like someone said, I just cut up good wood and glue it back together again.
