There are lots of things I need to find out for myself.  Most of which are only
available locked up inside the minds of people like Kas Kastner who I'm sure has
forgotten more than I ever hope to know about this stuff.  But I keep old books
around for reference purposes.  

Do you need any prices for a 1965 J.C. WHitney catalog???  :)
