Abstract
I describe a new method of searching for electrically charged and stab le elementary particles with masses larger than about 10(13) GeV/c(2). This method is based on measuring the terminal velocity of uniform ra dius liquid drops falling in air. The range of this search method and concomitant imponderables are discussed.
