Does this sound like anything recognizable to anyone: my Mac II monochrome
screen at times gets very faint moire-like patterns -- sort of like sand dunes
--  across it.  The picture itself isn't affected; it's sort of like a TV
station that's just a little bit off.  The pattern is "on top of" the actual
picture, if you know what I mean.   It seems to happen when it's slightly
jostled, or -- most noticeably -- when the mouse is held down in TMON (don't
ask me why :->).  In fact, when in TMON, the pattern went in different
directions depending on which way I move the mouse.  The monitor is in 16 gray
mode almost all the time. 

The monitor seems fine otherwise: it's about 1.5 years old and has given me no
trouble.  In fact, this is not that big a deal, but if anyone knows what might
cause this, I'd appreciate the info.  Please e-mail me if you can. 

Thanks,

Robert
