   10 years ago my pappie dragged a few batteries to a few places only to be told that they didn't take them anymore.

   I got a new catalog from the National guitar company, who is making wonderful instruments these days. They have the word Reso-Phonic copyrighted! What *are* we gonna call these things!! snip... What my pappie called 'em: "The How-are-yun Steel"

   Like my old pappie used to say: "If'n ya don't ask, ya don't git" (of course my pappie is alive and well, and doesn't know that I call him pappie, which of course I don't, as it was just a way of illustrating a point, and of course he doesn't speak like that at all, if he did he would lose his job as MD of a large commmunications firm... but I think you get the point) :-)
