N3RR has suggested that I make it clear that what I was referring to about
Phillytran was non-permanent stretchiness (short of the elastic limit). He
(and perhaps others) interpreted my original message to mean that Philly
could become permanently elongated under normal loads. For those who want
more detail, K7NV's web site has (or at least had) a very informative
comparison of the differences among steel, Phillystran, and Polygon guy rod.
