[SEL] People with deep pockets

[Judge Tommy Turner]

Patrick,

    I guess each person has their own interest but I agree that the 
original literature seems to have made a surge in price well ahead of 
the old engine price increases.  The original literature is harder to 
find than the old engines so I guess its natural that it would 
eventually catch on and become highly sought after.  Its sort of like 
what oilers did 20 years ago.  I can remember the day when oilers were 
not in much demand.  They were a minor secondary item to the old iron.  
Now you'll see an oiler on an engine and the oiler is worth more than 
the engine itself.  I remember the days of the $10 swingtops and 
paragons.  Those were the days.....
