A year or so, when everyone was "slamming" Frances, I
related my less than miserable experiences with them.
And when most people gave advice not to wind a primary
onto a form with holes (rather than slots), again, I
pointed out my good luck in doing just that. I hope I
didn't offend anyone in doing so, but I never
considered that a conspiracy or a plot of some sort.
We're lots of different people, with different
approaches to coiling, and life. I would be scared if
we always agreed and always had the same experiences.

Don't be so sensitive, or take anything said here
personal. This is probably the tamest list around.
