Nuthin' interesting. Just settin'.

Inertia is the most powerful force in the universe. A body at rest tends to stay at rest... :-)

Any experience with Midland GMRSs? I can get these for about $50 per pair. Same 2 watts of power allowed to all the other GMRS radios.

I was able to get into the Audiovox site. There are several phone numbers and email addresses for various functions. I think a call or email to their coporate communications department, telling them we're going public to praise Motorola and slime them, might get some results. Heck, we only want to get working radios to our troops, so they can get what they paid for out of their own pockets.

I haven't heard back from Steve yet as to how many radios are involved. If necessary, I'll put more knives on hold until the radio problem is fixed.

WN, great stories from Tom. It warms my heart to think our little knives can do important stuff. Of course, you know that from your outdoor adventures.

Maybe we should consider giving away EMT scissors in our care packages. That was a good tip in the Ranger Rick Digest to keep a pair in stuck in the top of your boot, so you can cut through belts and webbing when riding in vehicles.

It's humbling to realize that our gifts, sent with love and joy, can sometimes have life-and-death consquences. So far, "life" has been the winner. Maybe it's the prayers that accompany them.
