Nicely done.  I agree that Lang's book is the gold standard.  Amazing. 

The mosquitoes at the end brought back some terrible memories from one
late summer dawn that Greg Weddig and I spent in the marshes of
southern Delaware.  Greg had wisely brought his net hat.  For whatever
reason I was the most delicious thing to ever walk through that area.
 I came out with many hundreds if not thousands of bites.  I was a
swollen mess for many, many days after.  I think I was in semi-shock.
 I hope they enjoyed the buffet.

What do you guys use to keep the mosquitoes from banging into the
Rycote/Windpac, etc?  It sure can ruin some good recordings.  I am
hesitant to spray anything onto my Windpac.
