    Dick -
    I have never seen a Swooper.
    Which way did it move?
    Did it move from left to right OR right to left.

    Mike I haven't either.
    Beleive it or not It was before my time!
    It looks to me as if it would move right to left.
    Also it reminds Me of the Modern Day Zipper, except the whole structure doesn't rotate.
    They might have even been able to reverse the direction.
