	Can't resist this.  I have a couple; can someone tell me where I put
them?  Lotsa junk here and stuff gets lost.  Of course, I'm sure none of
the rest of you have problems like that.

[Ed, you need to clean up more often!  I'm "re-organizing" my basement and
garage, and I'm finding Stuff that literally hasn't seen the light of day
for years (including a few copier HV supplies that I didn't even remember
I had).  Now, everything will (eventually) be (essentially) inventoried,
organized, marked, and stored in nice flip-top, stackable plastic storage
boxes ($4.95 from Home Depot) on a slew of 4'x6'x18", ~6000lb capacity
"Gorilla Rack" metal shelf units ($50 each at the local BJ's). HIGHLY
recommended! SRR]
