In all fairness, I have had UPS deliver a Model 33ASR in perfect shape,
not even dislodging the "H" plate!  So I know they can do the job, right now
they just aren't doing it, do they have some union or labor issues?  All 
I know is that things have changed, and I know that a widow/widower, 
finds very little comfort, in an insurance policy!  If they were 
shipping humans, this would be criminal activity!

Just Bob!
73's to the "Greenies" & Even Parity to the "Gray's"
