First, forgive the belated response.  I'm a little behind on my email.  =
Only 293
more message to go, the oldest being from the 4th ;-)

I may sound a little silly here, but has anyone tried contacting Wozniak =
about
this?  *If* you could get a hold of him he would probably be more than =
happy to
help out with this one.  After all, AFIAK, he designed the IWM and =
probably the
SWIM *and* he and sympathizes(sp?) the "hobbyist in the garage" approach =
to
doing things. :-)

I know, it sounds silly, but I have heard that getting in touch with him =
isn't
impossible.  If fact, I've heard it's not too difficult at all -- if you =
know
where to start looking.  I would suggest the Voter Registration Dept. of =
the
county that he lives in.  You can get his address (or anyone else's) that =
way
and then write him a letter.  :-)

Just a thought. ;-)
