Sonia, Thanks for the information on the TENS. I also received some information from Nancy B. concerning how to purchase it in the U.S. Please don't apologize for your language skills. I was a U.S. airman stationed in Germany in the early 1970s. After many conversational German courses and two semesters of German at the university level, I felt compelled to try my language skills. I wandered into a local shop and began jabering to the shopkeeper. After a few moments he turned around and asked me to speak in English so that he could understand me. Languages are obviously not my strength. Also, I'm sure the pun attacks that a few people on this list have had recently are driving you crazy with that phrase book. Thanks again. Phil G.
