reply (as he often does!) this post will soon roll off into the Archives. It should be noted that Greg Susong left us great piece of reference material in the "FAQ's" link (just below the "ChipGuide.com" link towards the top of any ChipBoard page.

If you click that link, the 3rd or 4th reference item is a pictorial representation of the difference between Short and Long. Here is the link directly ( http://www.themogh.org/cg_faq.php ) but always remember that it is available at the FAQ's link above.

Happy Holidays,

Jim
