Bud,
     It is a shame that all of this information was not something that 
was widely known forty seven years ago. If I had any inkling, I had 
plenty of chances to talk to steam engineers before they retired and 
were gone forever.

Be that as it may, I never had an engineer mention intercepting/reducing 
valve problems in what talks we did have.
