Dear Paul,
It seems a long time ago since you and the accelerometer left here and I am wondering whether either you have broken it or Mason has decided it cannot possibly work.
When your experiments on piston rings allow you time, you might drop me a line saying which of my suggestions is true.
Yours sincerely,
