I once read that an entrepreneur is someone who will work 16 hours a day for himself in order not to work 8 hours a day for someone else. Let's see, at 16 engines, transmissions and ham radios a day, your thief now must be rich enough to . . . . FUND THE CURE!!! Deanne Charlton (CG) [log in to unmask]
