Sanddrag, I don't know what wipers you're talking about, but I think that they just switch the motor on and off, I think they're verying wipe frequency, not speed.
I am part of the crew building the Cal Poly Universities "Enchanted Reverie" float for the Tournament of Roses Parade. You and a few million other people can look for it on TV January 2nd! As a note on the smoke, I don't think it is going to work out for this time. The deadline is too quickly approaching.

For the wiper control, yes, I don't know what I was talking about either. I guess in southern California I don't use my wipers often enough to remember what they look like when they move.
