	Rev 2.0 (2 added constants) 5. DYNAMICS- is how high the debris fly. 6. AERODYNAMICS- is how far the debris fly. S.M. __________________ Life is complex. It has a real part and an imaginary part.

	How true. In a related topic, my boss and our fellow CR4er standarded reminds me of the old saying, "Speed costs money, how fast do you want to go?"
