I'm doing demo's this weekend for the Tennessee Symposium in Nashville. This prayer will probably go over good. Hope I don't put anyone to sleep but I know how it goes.

John,
Never fell asleep during a live demo. But I've been put to sleep by the sights and sounds of many a turning video! Usually takes several attempts to get all the way through some pretty well known, if not downright famous, turners video presentations. Gotta say though our own Bill G's latest kept my attention during the entire first viewing. Don't mean to sound like some kinda' movie critic
Yo Yo Spin, can I reprint the prayer for our up-coming meeting? Should be good for a few chuckles.
Jake - sure, have at it...
