IIRC, the output from the antenna "polarized" their brain so they had to
keep moving westward at an ever increasing pace.  If they did not, their
head exploded.

I would have a link to http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?KC6ETE-9 here

differentiate a signature line from the text of an email, I am forbidden to
have it.
