any additional weight you haul in the nose should be determined by your 
computed CG, not how hard the nose drops.

or am I missing something?

    I worry about my child and the Internet all the time, even though she's
too young to have logged on yet. Here's what I worry about. I worry that 10
or 15 years from now, she will come to me and say 'Daddy, where were you
when they took freedom of the press away from the Internet?'
