sleep and I'll think again (I'm southern hemisphere so it's the end of a
long working day here - brain's fried!)
Cheers,

I'm the Sergeant Schultz of materials science, so I should just shut up
and 
listen.

But I'm also the Gilligan of lots of stuff, so my mouth keeps going. 
If 
cold were to affect shape of the reeds in any way, wouldn't their very

thinness cause them to be more affected than the thicker plate?
