One other item: Just how did Boy Barry's Aunt obtain 'asylum' under our nations

What 'threat' was she under in Kenya?

If she was under some 'threat', then why were Boy Barry's other relatives not
airlifted out of Kenya?

Why were Boy Barry's Aunt's immigration papers, and the reason for her 'asylum'
sealed?

I beg to differ on that Dave. Though the gubiment does a lot of
misdirection, matter of fact just about everything is......immigration
is not one of them IMO.

Depends on the size and the source. An H-bomb going off next to you
would give you one hell of an EMP, not that you would have time to
notice. Modern chips are fabricated with 45nM features and the move is
on to 22nM, which means even 1 volt would arc over them.
Do the math.

I admit I am not in one of the best places in the world for old technology.

I recently purchased a used Drake SPR4. Being far too expensive (and too
highly taxed) for a native to buy, it was bought by an immegrant from the
US who thought he was going to listen to the news in English on shortwave.

In 1976 or so when he bought it he proably was right, but the radio looked
like by 1980 it had been placed on a shelf and ignored.

I searched around for #47 bulbs for the dial lights. These are the small
bayonet 6 volt bulbs that were in almost everything up until grain of wheat
bulbs and LEDs became common.

I found what was probably the only box in the country. I could have ordered
them from the US, but the cheapest box I could find was over $25 after I
included postage.

Someone recommend a place called SuperBrightLeds.com on another mailing list
I am on. They sell replacement bulbs with LEDs instead of filaments. These
bulbs work on AC or DC, and can be used by themselves or in series.

The best point for me was they put them in an envelope for $5 shipping.

The drake uses 2 bulbs with a blue filter and one without. I replaced the
bulbs that were filtered with blue LED bulbs and the unfiltered one with a
white LED bulb. Quite a spiffy result. :-)

I do multitasking. If that bothers you, file a complaint and I will start
ignoring it immediately.

You wouldn't have time to do any mathematical musings.
Any thermonuclear activity strong enough to produce more than a mere click in
your receiver would have to be close enough to include you in its blast zone,
and would likely sublime you and your calculator, abacus, or whatever device you
were using to distract yourself.

That's what I meant.
POOF!
