Thank you Alan for the tip.  I never
knew google was so useful.  I typed in
"goop glue" and have found results from
several companies selling something
they call "goop glue".  They range from
silicone to evaporative set natural
plastics.

As I can't assume the person was using
the "goop" that came up as first hit.
All I have to do is guess which one the
original poster was talking about.

I realise that you don't have that
problem as you have shown a tendancy of
not traversing up threads to read the
original post before hitting reply.

Oh "Great Alan", can you please give us
lessons in *effectivly" using google ?

I would not want to run the risk of
being ignored.

I was going to describe a simple hunting/
bang-bang control system and claim it
was an effective PLL.  Suggest XY plotting
for someones EDM mill.  Scoff at someone
else for not putting a complete RIP in an
MCU with 4K of RAM. Or perhapse claim a
747 is less reliable than a DC-10 because
it has more motors.  But I thought any of
those things might have gotten me ignored
by someone or other.

Would be nice if everyone BOTHERED to read
UP a thread to get the gist.

Would be nice if everyone BOTHERED to
understand a problem before putting in
their 2 cents worth.

"I use goop glue" is about as concise as
saying "I get best results when I use my
favorite colour for ink-jet direct printing"

It does not give any indication of WHAT
the colour is.  Also if the 2nd poster
down the thread had followed the advice
(given as a joke I think) by the 3rd poster
- he would have come up with a lot of
google results for a persons favorite
colour without knowing it was the correct
result.

Sorry - I have better things to do.

Also with my bad back and your past form
I think you are better qualified to 
perform manual labour than I am.
