Interesting stuff, Klaus!

Just for the record, I've made an exception to the usual three images per day limit in this case. Nothing would be gained, and a lot would be lost, in spreading out this comparative material over multiple days.

Thanks Rick,

very kind, I had completely forgotten about that, since I'm not used to that from the others forums I'm active at.
