Hi Don,

            You are right getting a paper catalog was like pulling 
teeth.  They are tough to get a catalog from.  But in their defense they 
surely are not cheap.  A 10 year old catalog is almost as good as a new 
one.  An old catalog number is always good, if the product changes they 
will tell you the new best replacement. and any differences. Before I 
retired and had tried to get a catalog  by phone they would tell me who 
had one I could possibly use.  I did get a hand me down copy. 
         
            As a reference book they are worth their weight in gold. The 
information in them  and how to select the correct item is priceless. 

             Service is better than great.  I'm in NJ and can call at 6P 
and the order will be at my door the next day for standard UPS rates, 
not overnight or extra charges for their prompt service.   I don't ever 
recall an "out of stock "  order.

             An amazing outfit.
 
73,
