Speaking of nerves one thing I never mentioned in my cateracting thread was how I choked in fear when I set the tube in the water and noticed the temperature difference. I thought to my self "I'm holding a bomb...do I pick it up and pray that it doesn't implode...or do I drop it and run...will droping it an inch set it off...can I get far enough away before it goes boom?". I spent too long making up my mind IMHO. I was scared freaking stiff as I had no protestive gear on at all! Part of me wishes I had pulled it out the second I felt the cold as that might have saved it, but I had seen thin home glass wear break instantly and did not know what to expect from a CRT.
