OK. Just let me know. BTW, has hydrotropism hit your DATs? If so, 
that would be amazing. I know that Sarno's tapes from central Africa 
had some mold on them and they had to be strung all over the lab in 
order to clean them up and paste them back together again. But I've 
never heard of the sticky stuff. Yikes!
