It got me to thinking, (now there's a novel idea!<G>). Back = in the 70's & 80's I was doing a few a month! In the 90's, it dropped off = & I probably did 10, i.e. 1 a year. Now in the year 2005, one pops up! = Yikes! I wonder just how many of those beasts were made and how many are still = lurking out there?<G> You'd think we'd see the bottom of that pit fairly = soon!
