Ron, Oh man, we had two inches of snow in the Tennesse Valley (about 850' elevation here) Sunday and Monday. With temps in the teens-to-30s, I haven't played golf all week. It's been a bummer. Still some snow on half the green behind my house. Terrible winter...that was our second snow. :-) The

I think I may have one or two somewhere in the shop. I'll look around tonight and get back to the OP. Regards, Ron BTW, we've had almost 7' of snow so far this winter, and the snow cover is presently 24". Only 3 more months until Spring! On 4-Feb-09, at 5:20 PM, Chris Stricker wrote:

I feel bad for the OP. Man, all he wanted was to know where to find an unused EI70! Sadly, I don't have the on topic answer.

First off Kieth I do want to apologize for starting this fire storm you were just looking for a shaft. But as for the rest of the comments on the state of California's economy all I know is I moved here in 1989 from New York.  So far as cost of living I went from the fire into the frying pan.

I agree with Tom. Prop 13 was a great thing for California. If you can afford an $800,000 house, you should be able to afford the taxes. If you are grandfathered into the neighborhood, you pay less. My opinion is that 3 unions control California politics...the Teachers Union, Prison Guards, Gov

Trying to blame one thing for the majority of CA's problems is like herding cats. The problem with CA is/are the imbeciles in Sacramento. Where to start? Goodwin Knight? Pat and his son Jerry "Moonbeam"Brown? Big Daddy Jess Unruh? Willie Brown? Reagan, Gray? Arnold? I don't know if you were her
