    Well, while ughmmm taking care of some business and thumbing through the current F&S magazine, I noticed a reel test they mentioned on one of the pages.  While they didn’t put in in print, it is on their website.  I looked it over, and, while not exactly “scientific”, it was pretty cool.  They hooked the reels (on rods of course) up to a motocycle and gave them cool 45 mph run.  It did not provide anything definitive, but it’s worth a look.  It’s definately better than studying for the CPA exam like I am supposed to be.

    It’s down at the bottom.

    I would have embeded them, but it doesn’t look like YaBB allows (or maybe it is just this version) embeded objects.
