Hey, this is great!! The challenge has been made. How about making the
location for this duel, the IPTW-2000 in Harrisburg, PA. Loser buys the
other person a beer or has to wear a happy face button for a week.  Maybe we
can get it sponsored by the Scotty Tissue company (for David transportation)
to see which is more absorbent. We could start off with rilem tubes on
toilet paper and work our way up to various granites and Portland Cement
mortars.

Can we plan this into the schedule?
