Nathan, good on you for holding still so long.  Could it be long practice
at interminable meetings deep in the bureacracy that allowed you to show a
stoic demeanor while chilled on the beach.  All fun aside it is an
interesting technique that will be a lot of fun to implement for select
subjects.

Did Lars have any issues with color shift using the ND?
