Oh Jeff is so right.....

Remember when probably most everyone smoked?

The insides of radios collected the tar, and the

Manny who used to run Zonum out in sunny Cal would

chat about BC rebuilds where the first step was a soap and

hot water flush, and how the whole shop would smell

like an ashtray!
