I figure you had not read it and I doubt that you know how a skimmer really works, very
few do. They just assume, that is the reasoning behind many of Randy's articles. And then there are those that do not have a clue, many in this hobby for years and may think they know this hobby well. I did not post this article JUST for you Wayne. -- Boomer If You See Me Running You Better Catch-Up Former US Army Bomb Technician (EOD) Member; IABTI, NATEODA, WEODF, ISEE & IPS Want to talk chemistry ?
