Billy & Bill, I don't intend to hi-jack the post but I have an idea about veteran services, at least medical ones. I say give all veterans that have earned medical, dental, psychiatric treatment, and so on, an insurance medical card that has to be accepted by any professional service provider in the USA. Sell off the VA medical facilities to local, private owners and let Vets go where ever they choose. I figure that most veterans would go to providers convenient to them if they had a choice, so the folks currently working at VA hospitals should be able to find jobs in the area they live in helping the Vets they live near. That was not the case a few years ago when an old man I knew had to take a bus from West Central MO. to little Rock Arkansas to get a knee operated on at a VA facility. He lived within 50 miles of several hospitals that could have done the job locally. I am not a big fan of privatizing services that I think the government can successfully run w/o bias but apparently the medical field is something that the Veterans Administration has proven to be too inept at to be allowed to continue. Have the VA people treat the new "insurance system" as a single payer organization and deal with the paperwork. They are already doing work closely related to that as it is. Who pays? The tax $ currently going down the rat hole at the VA should more than take care of it. It's a shame that the rats who have benefitted the most from the recent wars are stashing TRILLIONS off-shore to avoid taxes when a fair portion of that should be taking care of "Old Soldiers." Just thinking,,,,,,, gm

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
