You're right George, we tend to jump all over things when they don't do what
we expect them to do. We don't think much about what they've been through in
their life.
As for that Champion, I've still got it. I'm kind of like Farmer, it just
MAY get me back to the shop some day. I've tried it since I took it out and
it worked. No way of telling, it don't take up much space. Gil
