You bet! Kind of annoying how one guy's conjecture (5 miles HA!) gets everybody excited. I've seen many very expensive efforts toward breaking a mile at the world championships, and none have succeded. This fellow gets in the paper making extravagant claims and the world press beats down his door and credits him with inventing something. I am sure *wink* this kind of thing never happens in any other technology fields. I'll see anyone who decides to come out, I'm on the crew of the Onager.
