[ICOM] Such a Deal

[Floyd Sense]

Sorry to hear about this, Bill.  I think you'd be doing us all a favor if
you'd share the name of your insurance company with us.  I had a better
experience with my homeowner's insurance company last year when I had a
lightning hit.  They treated me very well, and paid what I claimed for
everything, and even paid me an hourly rate for the repair work I did on my
Icom rig.  The day after I got the check in the mail, I got a letter from
Erie Insurance notifying me that they were canceling my insurance.
