   HI AL!!!   
   Its like winding the clock back to read a post from you.   
   Quite a Marvelous Marcy we have here.    
      
   If there's one thing everyone needs to get used to after turning 50, its   
   getting sick from a possible range of 1,001 ailments and nearly all involve   
   huge discomforts from the treatment, and not only from the ailment.   
      
   > ASIDE: For any RAT's that think they know about hangovers, you ain't seen   
   squat until the oncologists' get through with you ;) Six months of pouring   
   liquid nutrition into a plastic tube and enough narcotics to party like it's   
   1999. Yes kids, I missed    
   that one, too ;) And vast quantities of narcotics are not always fun and games   
   recreational pharmaceuticals. Sometimes they intermittently  barely mask the   
   pain. Sigh.   
      
   Hmm, narcotics hardly worked? did you try cannabis oil? they say this stuff   
   works where many other chemicals don't, plus, eating the oil is said to reduce   
   cancers because it triggers immune system to recognize your very own cancer   
   cells as the enemy.    
   Many cancers are regarded by our immune system as friendly because its our own   
   cells just growing without any growth inhibitor.   
   There seems to be too much online about cannabis oil to ignore it, or to   
   conclude / assume its all just a hoax.    
      
   > Yes, I did resurrect the old Grommes rcvr. I do not have the tuner tubed.   
   The power supply now has way too many chokes and polypropylene oil can   
   capacitors.   
   >    
   > I listened for many months. It is offline, for the nonce, as I am listening   
   to my home brew speakers direct from the chip amp in this PC monitor. The old   
   Nipponese 12" AlNiCo woofers in klipsch heresy cabs and the Pyle PDS 182   
   compression drivers in 8"    
   round waveguides sing to bring life to my Music, compared to the 1" x 5" full   
   range toys crammed into the bottom of this monitor housing.
