Does anyone have access to the IAI library at WVU? You can find the article there:

Article is attached. The pages were too big for my flatbed. This is the best I could do. Enjoy.

The attached story is interesting. It sounds alot like the technique demonstrated in the video I have linked below.

It's a 15 minute TV piece from Dutch Television. Its at least 15 years old. Thanks to Aad Kopens who shared it with me many years ago.
