[huskerlug] Re: A Couple of Questions

        "They" this time was just what I read off a box.  Most of the time 
I'm just a kid in a toy store looking at stuff he can't or at least 
shouldn't buy.   So I'm usually saved from bad advice.  I guess if I 
was really curious I would go ask one of the guys in the repair center 
if this were really true.  No, in this case it wasn't in Ditol either. 
 I suppose these things are as reliably labelled as the contents of 
cereal boxes are?   ---Jim
