Slip, you are right. Took a plug i just turned, penciled it, and Taga

hydroriented it. Suprise, suprise, it floated with the high side up and

the flat side down. . Granted that's only one plug, but as i

finish up this batch i will test each one the same way and see what

the results are for all 15.
