[NJARC] TUBE STORY

[Dave Sica]

John,

That was some box of tubes the guy gave you! You say you kept one '50. If
you think you might ever need one, I hope you kept two since these are
usually used in pairs. Or do like I try to do: avoid acquiring anything
that uses a tube that's worth more than most of the items in my
collection!
