I knew sooner or later I'd have to respond to all the Allied and Radio Shack stuff being posted ... it brings back a lot of memories here too. I had the pleasure of working several years for a R/S franchise store (not "dealer" nor "company" store). Talk about A Dream come true! I still miss it. Anyway, I haven't heard mention of the Adult Toy Mail order company that still makes us all wish we had more mad money stashed, Edmund Scientific! On a more down to earth subject, Can anyone suggest a cheap easy method of buffing out old phone housings? [Moderator's Note: Now don't get me started on Edmund Scientific! Gosh, all those old companies with their wonderful catalogs and great 'rainy Saturday afternoon' projects for kids and grown-ups alike! Years ago I supervised a Saturday afternoon 'science workshop' for little kids sponsored by the Chicago Public Library for one winter. Edmund gave us a couple thousand dollars in freebies for the kids, and I had fun too! Do I wish it was 1960 again, or what? :) PAT]
