James Vroman is the one working on it right now.  He doesn't have email yet,
so I think Jamie is printing them for him.  He seems to be doing ok 
on figuring it out so far.

Sure did.  And definately, thanks for sending it.  Also, we finally 
received the bill for the shipping and it wasn't half bad.  Thanks 
again for sending it.

We'll probably be asking some questions from time to time.  The motors
at first stumped us with the many wires coming out of it, but I think
James figured them out and it drawing some schematics of the entire wheelchair
circuit.  He's really into it.
