I don't want to double post, so I'll just post the link to my original physicsforums.com post since my question is probably more of a physics than engineer question -->

Thanks for any help,
Paul

Interesting twist on the forum rules. I'll allow it for now (mostly because you have an interesting question), but in the future, posting a link is pretty much the same as double-posting.

I'm going to lock this thread for now, to ensure that replies are posted in your original thread and not in both threads.
