missed it; sorry we don't have any American schools in OZ. Your
insinuation in the snide comment above is pretty dammed offensive and
totally uncalled for in a list such as this. FYI my "MO" is that over
here a 250 watt mercury "vapour" globe of the self-ballasting variety
costs AU$36 including the ceramic holder. Otoh 4 uv fluorescent tubes
plus the control gear to go with them costs 5 times that amount.
SAVING MONEY IS MY "MO".

Please watch your language and your temper.

FYI, that's American English.... ;')

Derek, I must have missed something, I wasn't picking up any ulterior
