projects with only minor "birdie" issues, but these HV
switchers might be a "different animal."  ........How would you go about 
picking one for a BA project?

I leave "birdies" problems up to the Audubon Society.  I suggest that the 
astute application of ferrite cores, bypass capacitors and shielding to 
arrest the noise is the remedy.  Junk computer power supplies are loaded 
with parts you can build some very effective RFI filters with.

He who is cruel to animals becomes
hard also in his dealings with men.
We can judge the heart of a man by
his treatment of animals.
