Folks-

Yes, the Heat section is in progress. Yes, it will be finished soon. No, it
won't be tomorrow.

I am on a complicated project right now that has tight deadlines. The site
update will incorporate a lot more than just the heater section...it will
have parts lists/costs, a heap more diagrams (including wiring diagrams for
the second battery, multiple fans, and all the auxiliary lighting), and a
bunch of photos (even one of Suzanne, the inspiration!).

I promise, as it was worth the wait for the first iteration, it will be for
the second. I bought voice-recognition software (Dragon,
NaturallySpeaking), and it is expediting completion of the project, and the
site build. (I have to train it a bit, the first time I said "EuroVan" it
spit out "Hero Fan") I will post when it is complete.
