Re: calculating the volume of a drop:

A few discrete experts have patted me on the back for finally beginning to figure it out.
I will pass the word on to all of you.

If you collect the sheath flowing from the stream for, say, 2 minutes,  all you need
to do is divide that volume by the total number of drops generated in those 2 minutes.
And that gives you the volume of a drop.  You don't even need to have the drop drive on.

Easy peasy (as my kids used to say).
