 Monkey Wards and Sears refused to hire a salesman who knew
 as little as Ohm's Law.  They didn't want anyone who may
 knock a product on display by saying, "Silverton has only
 2 I.F. stages but RCA (GE, Zenith, etc) has 4 stages and
 the added amplification makes for a better picture."

 Or, "The oscillator has an upper band tweak and a low band
 tweek, but Packard Bell (RCA, GE, etc) has an adjustment
 for EVERY channel.)"
