Brad - I hope you'll forgive the 'teaser' subject heading in this instance. I didn't think you'd want someone web-searching under this topic to arrive at this site...
"The name of the patient in this case has not been released."
That wouldn't matter now anyway, as it's likely to be a different name!

I wonder if you should donate that 'weenie' in one of your pictures! to the cause! 
BTW I do like your changing profile pictures. A friend told me I should change mine, as it looks like that I am sticking pins into people.
Most of this is in other threads. It is a replica I built of a Cinemation unit with permission of Bernard Bentley, the inventor of Cinemation, who most kindly gave me the matrix board. The matrix has 30 functions (all of which I used) including auto-reset & bell warning. There are a generous 48 pulse lines. I purchased a 4-way uni-selector & 33 triple pole 24 volt relays, all of which I double wired making the system as good as fail safe. I didn’t include any cam timers for intervals etc, as we had our own system on the non-sync bay, which consisted of 2 Revox full track stereo run @ 15ips, with sensors to pulse the Cinemation, and 2 Sony mini-disc machines. The case originally held Westrex 4 track mag pre-amps. Took over 3 months to build and install at a cost of about £700 ($1,000 I think that is) with all the wiring, relays and press buttons on everything else!
The unit is now on display at the Projected Picture Trust’s Enigma cinema & musuem at Bletchley Park. You will find the Bletchley Park website interesting.
Bernard Bentley is happily retired with his wife now, they both visited my cinema shortly before it closed. His last recent creation is the Cinemation 5000.
By the end of the year I will be able to submit a 15 minute DVD of the cinema for the video section. I shall have to find out if the length will be suitable for downloading though.
To save you searching Film-Tech I will e-mail you a couple of pictures, and list of operations.
Bet you wished you never have asked me now Paul. 
Leo, sorry this is has gone way off your 'topic'. 

Back to the subject: While I was in the navy, one of the strangest things I was asked to do was to help one of my shop technicians get scheduled for an operation like this. I had to pick a time and coordinate it with the doctor so the person could be off-duty at the same time as a smooth sailing day. This was during the Viet Nam era, and our flight schedule was balls to the wall almost 24 hours a day.
It would be kind of scary to think an operation of this type would be carried out in heavy seas and/or intensive flight operations. The ships vibrate so much that even a cup of coffee will bounce around on the table, and the rocking and rolling of the ship would dump test equipment on the deck if the test equipment was not tied down. 
I guess the operation went OK. At least, he told me the doctor didn't say, "OOPS!!" It was about a day or two when he came back to work. He was equipped with a can of freon just in case one of those embarrassing situations would occur.
Now, that would be an "Ouch" if the stitches started to pop loose.
Maybe this bloke will now try to get a job in Mexico...
Yes, but the donor would more than likely be a stiff
