Well, 
Ted, sounds like my wife!!!...however, it's been my "empirical" evaluation, 
(NOTHING on Erwin's site about it)....that as the M6 ain't up to the quality 
of my M4, likewise it's damn hard to find a good woman these days...oh yeah, 
the specs are the same, they even look similar, but they don't work and 
last as well....I'll stick with my 50s model, hell, I'm used to it, and it 
still kinda works...
