Hi All,

Now that I've had a chance to use BL for a while, I really think it is a great
improvement over MT.  I know I trashed some aspects of it previously, but I've
made it past those constraints.  I'm still hoping FF&S will permit me to fix
things.  Having the benefit of Loren "not Weisman" Wiseman on the TML helped me
perservere until I grasped the new system. It is nice to know what is errata
and what is obscure. In the later department please consider the following:

I have a question concerning grav/contragrav vehicles.  What has really changed
from CT & MT to TNE.  I always thought grav created a force which could be used
for propulsion when it pushed around in a gravity well. The force became less
effective as the gravity became less.  In TNE, the contragrav appears to negate
up to 99% of gravitational forces.  Does this cause any changes in how vehicles
can move.

Is any of what I've assumed true?  Has there been any change at all?  I had the
impression that grav actually imparted some maneuver capability.

Every time I think about this MY BRAIN HURTS.


TTFN

Glenn
