The art work or drawings and a specification (body of the patent
text) sufficient to allow a reasonable person, diligent and skilled 
in the technical art covered by the patent, to make or manufacture 
or utilize the method of the patent, is all that is required for 
"reduction to practice".  Tell Andy that making a working model used 
to be the requirement and still can be required as a practical
matter if the sufficiency or physical feasibility of the physical
embodiment is challenged by the examiner and the inventor wishes
to prevail.   This may be the strategy that Newman's PC has in mind
for a demonstration coming up in January or February.
