    Richard , I commented politely to your abject stpidity the first time,
but now you have made it open stroke season. If you are still worried
about the cost of a "catalytic converter" for you light, and failed to
take the friendly advice to call Barry (I am sure he would GIVE you 
some catalyst), then what are you doing dispensing advice on a matter
you clearly know absolutely nothing about? The light bulbs cost $4.00,
dumb ass. I don't mind you being a stroke, because I know you can't
help it, but save the bullshit for Compuserve - they have enough idiots
over there to keep you busy for weeks.  - G
