  1. £75 for a rack of lamb???? I think that a tr[p to the local grocery store would be a lot less expensive!
  2. On 6M, a ship (tanker, I think it was) in the South Atlantic from my then home in south Florida. Again on 6M (the magic band!) a contact to the Mariannas Islands.
  3. Still looks more like a racoon to me. 😉
  4. J. S. Bach

    On Cats

    I want to reach into the screen and give her a great, big hug!
  5. Imagine a full customs inspection and then re-packing!
  6. I was lucky enough to score a K-Line EP-5 (originally O gauge three-rail) that someone had converted to two-rail: According to some, the K-Line Jet compares very favorably (possibly better than) the brass import.
  7. And a few doors down (same side; towards the Interstate bridge) is the Cornerstone Baptist Church. Competition reigns!
  8. The system was called "common battery"; there was a turbine-powered generator on the top floor (somehow I never got a photo of it) that was automajically up and running within a short time to power the system in the event of a longer power failure.
  9. Keep the EP3s and EP-5s if you have any! Keep the S-motors if you have any!
  10. Which is what you had with copper.
  11. The battery back-up in the former Bell Ft.Lauderdale CO: And to give an idea of the size of the bussbars: One of the fuses (about two or so inches in diameter): I was give a tour back in 1991 as the office was being dis-mantled and the building converted to other uses. EDIT: Note that these photos were taken with a 640x480 resolution Sony Mavica camera that used a 3½" floppy for storage.It was inserted like a film plate in a Speed Graphic.
  12. I have heard that about a lot of "big names". Some interesting stories about Presidential treatment of the White House staff are very interesting to read. The treatment went from almost family to street dirt.
  13. I still have a working laserdisc player to (sometimes) view my laserdisc collection.
  14. I remember the opposite; the $30.00 parts blows to protect the ten-cent fuse.
  15. Thank you. I just ordered one. I already had one in OO (card kit) that I had planned to scan and enlarge, but this one makes the whole process simpler.
