A standard practice in any business, school, government or relationship is to never respond to anonymous comments. Once you do they have control of you and you will never know where it is coming from, regardless of the topic. Anyone of integrity, character and courage will sign their name to such comments, others wise its invalid input and just meant to stir a quiet pot.....

He bought it from a surplus dealer in D.C. in the '70's for $5.00 or so. He commented on here that he wish he has bought all the guy had, because they are unobtainable now.
