    It would be my guess that my Personal Doc or the cardiologist who ordered all the tests would be the one who will inform me that they don't know why I had those incidents....I see the personal Doc 3/11 and sometime in May hit the cardiologist's office again.....I've been wandering about the...

    Good luck with the test Wharf..... I've never been able to alter resin tips without complete failure....Drill bit will likely crack the tip...I'd hit the HF for a small carbide grinding bit and chuck that in the drill....Then go at it really slowly....
