Well, I can't disagree.  I sure would like it to be less, considering I just
bought 1500 of them! :-)  That's a bit of a discount, too.  You have to buy
ridiculous numbers to get a real meaningful discount.  When I first tried to
find them two years ago, I was hoping to get 'em for 25-30 cents each, and I
got my expectations adjusted very quickly.

Still, at $1.85 each today, that's about $8.25 in 1980 dollars per box of
ten.  Doesn't seem so bad when you look at it that way.  I remember paying
$15-$20 per box plus tax back then (no cracks about my allowance please,
Jack :) ).

Patrick :-)
