You just gave me an idea... Perhaps I will advertise the following in audiophile magazines: *** KNOCK 'EM DEAD with 38-GAUGE SPEAKER INTERCONNECT CABLES *** Be the first on your block to have 38 GAUGE speaker interconnect cables! That's right, folks, THIRTY-EIGHT GAUGE wire! Our interconnect cables are made from the finest [:-)] Belden "Heavy Armored Polythermaleze High Temperature" wire that is available! Why settle for 10-gauge or 12-gauge when you can have a 38? Only $ 5.00 per foot! Order now - don't delay! Think I'd have any takers? :-) <> Larry Lippman @ Recognition Research Corp., Clarence, New York <> UUCP: {allegra|ames|boulder|decvax|rutgers|watmath}!sunybcs!kitty!larry <> VOICE: 716/688-1231 {hplabs|ihnp4|mtune|utzoo|uunet}!/ <> FAX: 716/741-9635 {G1,G2,G3 modes} "Have you hugged your cat today?"
