I would think he would have been under the witness protection thingy.  Strange


 RW>>> They have wireless speakers now. Plug the transmitters into your
 RW>>> stereo system and you can have wireless sound next to the pool or
 RW>>> ice rink, whichever is your pleasure.

 JD>> Yes, I am aware, but, that too requires power I think.

 RW> Yes, two batteries of the AA variety, I think. Maybe they're Cs...

Not too bad then

 RW> Dunno what kind of electronic stores you have around Trenton, but here

The only electronics store in this small town, is what used to be Radio Shack
before Circuit City purchased Tandy International, and lost the right to use
the RS name.  When CC went bankrupt, Bell Canada purchased that chain.  Kept
the same name (The Source) and remove the 'from Circuit City' part of the name.
The still sell pretty much the same stuff, just under a different brand name
<G>  21 Km from here is a bigger city, and it has two larger electronics
stores.  Best Buy, and the original Canadian version of that, which they
purchased about 10 or so years ago.  They are accross the street frome each
other.  Artificial competition I guess.  They carry much the same stuff.
