Ken shared:  Last week, we had a discussion about Flir. I spoke with the
head of

marketing at NVTi, the maker of my unit to see if they wanted to comment.

They said they would, and perhaps they shall.

Scott asks:  Ken, any word from them?  I'm really curious to hear their
position regarding the reports I and others have made that the FLIR
capability in FOG is far less than what was represented during our purchase
decisions.  I'm not unhappy with the product, but I do feel it was oversold
stating it would operate in fog?  Thanks for contacting them, perhaps no
reply is in and of itself a response?
