RE: Aluminum Foil Zip Protection.

I didn't have any aluminum foil [I don't make it to the store very often <G>], but I taped a piece of a gum wrapper over the reflector and it didn't reject the disk.

I couldn't find a screwdriver small enough, but I would be interested in seeing how well the aluminum foil works if the reflector is physically removed instead of just covered up. I suspect that it would work the same, but it would be good to know.

In any case, the technical ease of reproducing the reflector still doesn't mean anything in the legal battle.

I'm still long and strong IOM.
