Jay, I second Bob-O's comment - completely.
I inherited a number of pocket-plate ni-cad cells in the early 90s and went through the same exercise as Richard Perez -- including the same bad words he used (maybe more). If the cells are truly diminished in capacity, recycle them. The reconditioning effort required in an attempt to bring them back to life wasn't worth it. You may as well consider a DIY re-cap of your old tires while you're at it. Words of experience from the old guard....
