While researching dihedral I learned that the word meaning "negativedihedral" is the word "cathedral". I never could remember whether a cathodewas negative or positive. Now I will remember a Cathode is negative...chris bobka________________________________________________________________________________

DJ,The prefixes A or AN mean "without" so anhedral is no dihedral and nocathedral. Atheist meaning without God and anonymous meaning without name.Chris Bobka-----Original Message-----

I thought is was anhedral. When I spell check it, the correction comes up"cathedral." Anhedral is what Burt Rutan called it on my Vari Eze.Cy GalleyEditor, EAA Safety Programscgalley(at)qcbc.org or experimenter(at)eaa.org----- Original Message -----

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: I discoverd somethingAn easy way to remember it is that the word, "catheter" is definitely negative. Even I can remember that.________________________________________________________________________________
