<div>Dear Anil,<br>
<br>
I agree with Frank that your work is quite interesting. It is
sure to stimulate further research questions. One that I will
add is derived from Frank's comment about collecting soot on
paper. If that collection works, perhaps the camera could be on
the BACK side of the paper, measuring what actually comes through
the soot and paper. There are some special papers with highly
consistent transmission of light.<br>
<br>
Congratulations on some innovative appropriate technology.<br>
