When I needed a design for a fast pulse generator, Jim Thompson very 
kindly came up with the goods for me and was happy to do it for free. Jim 
designed quite a lot of bits and pieces for me over the years. He was a 
*genuine* contributor in the true spirit of mutual assistance that the 
'net used to be all about. You could learn a thing or two from Jim's 
exemplary conduct here, Bill. Stop being a condescending wanker and chip-
in something useful for a change.
