Here's the Wikipaedia definition of both
terms.                               "Jury rigging refers to makeshift
repairs or temporary contrivances, made with only the tools and materials
that happen to be on hand. Originally a nautical term, on sailing ships a
jury rig is a replacement mast and yards improvised in case of damage or
loss of the original mast. When more permanence is meant by the term, such
a build may be referred to as jerry rigged."

      I don't like this new Google groups interface BTW!   Dan
