Chad,
        Thats exactly what I proposed to the Design Manager. Unfortuneately,
he is only a designer and not an engineer. However, this guy is very popular
at DC so he might be able to get the right ear to propose that idea and
actually get a recall. Dont bet on it, but stranger things have happened.
