Yeah, remember beer isn't just for breakfast anymore. If you really want to
see some weird stuff, you have to show up at my house for Tuesday night band
practice. Baby boomers don't have the exclusive rights to mind altering
substances... <VBG>

  Having grown up in the 60's and 70's, I don't need no stinkin' Doritos,
CRT's or PC's to see any weird stuff.  The reverse avalanche is like a flash
back to a different time for us baby boomers. :)

     Easy. Elevator, rudder, aileron. In that order. Works in both
directions (left AND right). It even works inverted but you apply opposite
aileron / rudder. The whole thing takes about 1 second. That's the problem.
Your eyes are "blind" when they're moving. That's another problem. How much
of it do we really see?
     Here's something to think about. Have you ever looked at an LED
display - like an alarm clock or something like that. Does it look like the
LEDs are "On" constantly? They're not. OK, in some designs they are but most
of the time they are multiplexed. There are 7 segments in a display. The
number "8" requires all of them to be illuminated at the same time. The
micro that drives them does not turn each one on at the same time. It turns
each one on for a certain period of time, then the next one, then the next
one. In spite of this, your eyes "see" them all on at the same time. This is
due to the persistence of the display and the fact that your eyes and brain
aren't as fast as you think they are. Now for some fun. Eat some D'Oritos
(or any hard crunchy food - this makes your eyes "blind" for a short period
of time) and look at the same display. See what I mean? The same is true for
a CRT display (the one on your PC). If the refresh rate is low enough,
you'll see some weird stuff if you eat D'Oritos and look at the display.

      Nat,'

                  I agree with what you said, all the way. And it actually
helped me understand a little bit more. About the substance of snap rolls.
But there still is a very big controversy over the (millions of ways) to do
a snap roll. But maybe one day everybody will agree on one particular way.
