RW> I could do that, a long time ago. Slide rules and calculators changed all
RW> that.
 
Ain't that the truth.
 
RW> I have those too. My mother made crafts and sold them during the
RW> holidays.
 
Mine raised three children and it was especially difficult for her because
my dad died when I was six years old amd she had to get a job.  She worked
for Sears for twenty-nine years.
 
RW> I have some of those too. My dad came back from WW2 with a few Nazi
RW> souviners and I have some of those too. Especially neat was the officers
RW> holster with a .25 auto pistol in it.  I used to sneak it out of his
RW> drawer  when I was a kid and take it out for target practice. I always
RW> bought new ammo for those occasions and left his alone. I don't think he
RW> ever knew. I did some gun-smithing on it for him some years later,
RW> replacing a lost ejector after seeing the one he attempted to make for
RW> it.
 
I'd like to have gotten my hands on a 7.65mm Luger.
 
RW> Ahhhh. Do you know how to change it's name via the echolist so people
RW> don't lose it during the transition from BAMA to NASA_UPDATES?
 
Yes, I do, but it's just obscure enough for me at the moment.  (-:
