[NJARC] Technoweenie Stocking Stuffer -- PDF File

[Harry Klancer]

John,

Thanks for doing the legwork. It's great to have the
information, and I'm printing it out for sure.

To Chuck - mine didn't come with any paperwork -
it was a complete mystery; you can learn by trial
and error but John's data really helps!

                                 Harry K
