    You just cost a car machinist, a piano teacher, and small tv electronics distributor their job. Good thing we raised taxes on the rich.

    Shane, remember the phrase "You don't need to know everything, trust me". You will be able to use this in the future to your great benefit, don't forget to cite the author. What a break, amigo. :thumb:
