[GreenKeys] Something interesting over on ePay...

[LEE MUSHEL]

I won't comment on the asking price.   Most of my machines were either free for picking up or less than $50--yes that includes my 26!  If you want to note something interesting I think it should be the fact that it obviously includes the crank!   Missing cranks for most machines are hard to find!

I also took note of the discussion today of problems with the sun.   This isn't something new, observed today!  Another on-line group, the "time nuts" who have a variety of older precision instruments and are always "making measurements of this, that, and the other, have been complaining for weeks about changes in the earth's magnetic field, thinking, I suppose, that the field will disappear or do one of it's "flips."

And I guess the props crew could have covered up the WE Bell logo, doubt the army would have used anything with that logo.

I've watched all the M.A.S.H. episodes several times and don't ever remember seeing one either.  Might just start another marathon watch and look for one.

Maybe the $750 price is based on the supposed fact it was a prop on M.A.S.H.
