To remind everybody - the archives are searchable at

http://calcite.rocky.edu/photo-3d

and are now passworded - use the account id of

photo-3d

and the password of

calcite

NOTE these ARE case *sensitive* - they must be entered correctly.

I did a search for Don's question and it turned out to be suprisingly
difficult to locate - there is nothing matching 'sheetrock', too many things
matching 'reflective'. So I specified reflective AND paint, and specified
a 'far' range match.  (Incidentally, the glimpse phrase for this is the 
rather strange spec of ...)

reflective;paint

One really good match is in p3d1499.txt and surrounding digests.

Response from calcite is pretty reasonable right now (or, if you have
Dan's disk, you can search that way, too).

THANKS
