On 24/6/04, GRAYWOLF, discombobulated, offered: kind of looks like one of those platic tubes you put down under gravel to keep plants from growing up through it. Neat way to make a buck selling it as a toy for 5x what it costs at the building supply store. Now you hang you DSLR from it and do aerial photos. The rest of us watch and laugh when it crashes in the lake. GRIN! I thought it looked like a fully erect great big huge throbbing black pudding!

The unleasher(s) might never get out of jail! g When I was in high school, right around 1979 or 1980, some locals got into trouble for filling punching bags (big heavy duty balloons) with hydrogen and tying a length of waterproof (green) fuse to them. They'd light the fuse and release them to detonate when the fuse burned up to the punching bag. When they got a little optimistic with the fuses, the things were getting into the traffic pattern of the local airport. They had some rather, um, earnest discussions with the FAA and the BATF according to the local newspaper. TTYL, DougF KG4LMZ
