True. As an adaptation I'd make class 3's 2 arc.

That's 4 mass too much. Revised as having only 2 class 3s. How that got
that way I don't know. Thanks for catching it.

oops on the cut and paste and editing.

hmm.. odd. I ran it through the program again and it came up the same.

hmm.. don't know where I made that mistake.

Thanks for the rundown.
