I have two 822's on order with Larry.  The only knob he specified for those 
was the regular MOTM Alco knobs.  I'm looking for a little variety in the 
look of my MOTM and rotary switches should have pointer knobs.  I've searched 
all over the place and the only manufacturer that has a pointer knob with a 
silver disc ontop and matches the MOTM style is the one I posted to the list. 
 Davies has a similar pointer knob but they don't have the silver disc, 
despite the fact that the artist who drew the picture of it for the Allied 
catalog put a silver disc on it.  I talked to Davies and it doesn't exist.

So far 4 other people than myself have told me how many knobs they want, 1 
will get back to me later and 1 might want some if Larry didn't specify 
anything "more interesting".  One of those people said he was thinking of 
ordering between 50 to 100 regular knobs.  If he does that through me, then 
I'll definately be getting 100+ regular knobs.  Going by the current trend 
I'll probably have a commitment for 50 or more pointer knobs by the weekend, 
so that will be enough to push me into ordering 100 of them.
