Ken, Re-read the abstract. I don't know what abstract you are talking about. I'm referring to the safewise article that Soloist posted, the link of which was contained in the post that you responded to and quoted two posts up. It has no abstract. Try the link in this post , where Josh was replying ...

Oddly enough, having a CB radio in my church would be very much frowned upon... The church I grew up in was heading toward a split at the time they first became popular. The "conservatives" very much frowned upon the "liberals" who got them. There was plenty of talk about the gu...

Wow, has this thread moved off the original post. :lol: Starting with the last couple posts on page 1 and several toward the end of page 3, which seem to bear little relationship to the OP.

Since you're a connoisseur of old threads, consider how difficult it would be years from now to find this one with an even more non-descriptive title than the one it now has.

As an unimportant person myself, despite the efforts of airlines and hotel chains and credit card companies to convince me otherwise, I rarely sign checks. I *issue* dozens of checks each month between church, personal, and business accounts, but it's unusual to print and sign more than one a month ...
