[R-390] Another satisfied Ebayer? (sp corrected)

[Jim M.]

Let us put this little loudspeaker thing in perspective:
http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2003/iraq/forces/casualties/index.html

And if that's not enough, just remember it is NOT a tsunami.  I have bought 
several BA's that turned out to have defects that weren't advertised. 
Rather than bitch and moan, I just fix 'em.  We're talking about ancient 
technology here folks, what's the big deal?  Run down to Home Depot, buy 
some eighth inch oak paneling, some angle brackets wood glue and brass 
screws, make yourself a box!  Then put it in the rack, and you'll never 
know!

Maybe RM has been having bad days in his life lately, you never know what's 
going on.  30 years ago I Probably did better fabricating work than I do 
today.  Maybe he got overwhelmed with too many orders, and he had someone 
else help him.  Who knows?

Just remember, it ain't a tsunami.

Jim M.
