     Don is slowly getting Apex organized better, you can 
now walk through most of the isles without either falling 
over something or knocking something down.
     I've been a customer for decades.  Apex overpriced 
stuff and it stayed around for years.  The storage and taxes 
on it must have eaten up any profit from the excessive 
prices.  I once saw something there with one of my cal tags 
from when I worked for Hewlett-Packard. Amazing.  I still go 
over there once in a while but its depressing.
     When I got started in ham radio and electronics there 
were at least half a dozen large surplus houses in L.A.  I 
miss them, but the world has changed. High-Ho...
