Dr. Greenhouse, thank you for the analysis and your explanation. That
should close the efficiency side of this conversation, however esthetics is
a whole another story. Since I know your work and consider the basis of
your analysis as 100% accurate we should let artists in our midst argue the
colors.

Matt, I can report that life in retirement and sailing in the visible
spectrum is not bad, perhaps some day you can enjoy not worrying about the
effects of IR and go sailing on Friendship as you like.

John
