Besides I generally buy secondhand :-) Mind you it's just what we all need - another trade war with massive knock on effects on all participants. If I was an exporter from the US, I'd be very frightened. In Ireland, we're all assuming he's going to win over there. It's all very sad when one realises that the US led the world towards democracy in the past, and there so many more capable people in the GOP.? It's a sad reflection of more than a few factors, including, among many others, an underfunded US educational system and the mass of its products, a fractured and biased media, and historically lower voter turnout - thanks to your two party system and lack of proportional representation.? It's hard to believe that a washed up 78 year old serial failure with such a dodgy business background keeps the party of Eisenhower and Reagan in thrall, despite his history of treachery and sexual impropriety. Don't flee your country, stand up and fight. Douglas On 16/10/2024 01:10, Frank Filippone via LUG wrote: > What do you do? > > You really really really want a new M11.
