[R-390] EMP vs Tube Gear

[Cecil Acuff]

That's a bit warm for Tacoma I would think....it's 38.2 degrees in Gulfport 
MS this morning at 7:44 local (CST) with a 15 knot wind out of the north 
feels more like 28 degrees....

I miss the auctions as well...

Didn't find out about them until late and by the time I got made a couple it 
was gone...

Cecil....
