[GreenKeys] FW: Screw guiding screwdrivers

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Yes.  And AFAIK, the screws only came in one size and material.  If you 
never needed to do anything that needed one of the screwdrivers, you will 
probably never be dealing with parts for which you need one.  But if you did or 
have and didn't have the magic screwdriver, the first time you put a cord in 
a PL-54, 55 or 68 WITH the screwdriver, I almost guarantee you will concede 
that it must be magic!  :-)
