Hi Alan,

Bill Tremel and his dad had a great light plant setup.  It was a duplicate of
the oil well drilling platform where the light plant came from with loads of
lights.  They'd to that same sort of "flip the switch" spiel.  It worked a
treat.

See ya,  Arnie

> Just turning on the lamp is not enough to excite the Delco.
