 May give it a shot, in that case. Or at least put
 it on my To-Do list. Don't watch that much TV for
 some blurring to make a great deal of difference.
 The news -- sometimes -- is about all. And some of
 the news these daays can use some blurring.

 Good tip, that. The newer ones are duds in that
 department. And I think I have one of those old
 ones around here somewhere.
 
 And I think it was Roy who mentioned a VCR repair
 kit for $20 [?] that I meant to ask him about but
 never got around to. Am in catch-up mode and am so
 strapped for time lately that I've had to abandon
 various projects.
 
 Someone else pointed out another use for old VCRs
 -- that you can dub video tapes with two old VCRs,
 something you supposedly can't do with newer models.
