Re: Try again



While the inside of my ota is painted flat black, it would have sayed that
way all the time, but I was looking from right behind the secondary and also
from the ep holder it showed black and while standing at the same spot the
black faded from view, so if it was way out of alinement and reflecting the
sides, it should have stayed that way during the 2 hour time frame.

I didn't get to check the mirror today as I had to drive a fellow vietnam
vet down to the va doc in lancaster and we had to leave at 6:30am, just
getting back and it's over 45 now, not the 28 it was this am.

So until I'm 100% sure of it or can figure out what caused it, I'll keep on
using Galactica up at the corner.
