Jim, I’ll need to figure out why the exact same PDFs that I sent to Rob had thin grid lines when I printed/saved them from Microsoft Excel spreadsheets appear much different when downloaded from the

Sometimes search engines or browsers are quirky. I suggest using another browser. Then again I tried all three of the browsers I have for the Fallen Flags site and none of them worked. Maybe tomorrow

I ordered a couple of cutting tools from Micro Mark last week and they came today along with their printed catalog—Wow. Maybe it my imagination or faulty memory but they have really upped their game

Schuyler: It's certainly not a patent number -- US100,000 was filed in the 1870s. And yes, they are all there, back to "beginning of time". Google Patents is one point of access. They have not really

The RPI site describes flat cars of various lengths with 11, 13, 15, 17, and 19 stake pockets. So I don't know if an odd number is "just as common as an even number", but I think it's safe to call odd
