Well, Cecil, I have to agree with you. The more I look at these CV133's, the
more the markings look just a half-step away from cryllic.  The thick bold lines,
the geometric sans-serif typeface, the squares and triangles, all add to the thought.
Although to be fair most Euro tubes have those characteristics, and even some
US tubes :-).

And about the lemonade thread... it really personally bothers me when someone
uses E-bay auctions to complain about a deal gone bad. Not sure why. I'm sure deals
go bad, and sometimes both buyers and sellers are committed to making a deal be bad.
I can understand the feeling of being cheated, but at the same time airing yourself out
to the world that way just isn't right.

Tim.
