this reminds me of a story my father related to me.  He was union
rep at Coleco (Now defunct US toy manufacturer) and one of the
managers was looking over an invoice and inquired what a certain
part number was for.  They looked it up, and it was a special power
relay thing specifically designed for mobile homes/RVs; nothing that
they could use at the shop at all....  sometimes things really get
snuck around.

and on a side note, I recently re-subscribed... I had my saved mail
message from my original subscription (about a year old) and
resubscribed there.  my commands went through just fine, but no
mail... I was subscribed alright.  So I tried to post, and it
bounced, so I did a web search and here I am..  hehe... I don't
understand 5 percent of what goes on here, but I do enjoy it...
