Andy,
I received a Mountbatten from someone on one of the reseller lists for the
blind once and couldn't get a peep out of it. I ended up throwing it out
and just bearing the loss, so I do know how you feel ...
I hope those reading who have done these things feel suitably bad, but
perhaps they don't! <GRRR>
