But the "special" isn't really so special, compared to the regular prices they show. For further info you might fax them at 313-343-2928 or call them voice at 800-736-5984. Please note: I am in no way connected with Michigan and haven't even bought anything from them; but I do appreciate their timely and informative faxed replies. --Dave McLane
