To JoAnn and Fred, my thanks for your replies to my questions about vibrations aboard VOYAGER. Actually, I received a 3rd as well, privately. All say pretty much the same, providing a measure of relief.

Having (some of you) done so well on 'vibration', let me offer another question for you to solve:

Can anyone propose some function (both legal & moral) for that butler? The proffered list of duties strikes me as farcical. I had avoided them in previous voyages but this time there was no escape.

Al
