I believe another book titled "The Wood Effect" is about to go to 
press. It'll be filed under Medical and will deal with the 
psychological effect my posts have on IBUZ cheerleaders. We're 
rushing the printing schedule so we can beat all the other people 
posting IBUZ problems.

It'll be good reading for engineers who were trained to do no harm 
and can't quite understand how to justify interference simply because 
a station doesn't sell in a market in which another station causes 
them preventable interference.
