Sorry, Read6737, I was responding to both you and Jim (see the end of his post, above). His reference to Hadzici (and its misfortunes) brought back memories of a bit of uranium with which I almost had a close encounter. Do the Google thing on Hadzici (or TRZ.5) if you haven't made the Yugoicon sniper connection yet- it IS a bit tenuous, I'll admit!
