Bud's question reminded me of something that happened years ago when I was
still a police dispatcher. We received a call about a wreck. The
investigating officer related to us how when he got there, the
'perpetrators' claimed that their brakes had failed. The officier duly
checked them, and they appeared to be working perfectly. One of the people
in the car, either driver or passenger, suggested that they go around the
block and test them under actual driving conditions. Well, the officer
agreed, got in and off they went. After going around the block, and again
approaching the accident scene, the officer put his foot on the brake... it
went straight to the floor with no lessening of the forward motion. As he
began pumping the pedal, the passenger screamed, " HERE WE GO AGAIN...!"
This echos my sentiments about BOKEH exactly! somebody send him the Bokeh
101 file... PLease!
