I fixed the broken welder. This morning with a cup of coffee I took
another look at it and notice that two of the Al. heavy wires going to
the selector switch were toching each other. When I pulled the switch
back to hit it with the contact cleaner may have pulled them
together.After I seperated the wires it worked perfect. I like to
thank you guys for the hints and advice. Go to the bar and tell the
bartender to put it on my tap.
Thanks Again.

You have your own tap? Sheesh. My beer gets poured out of the same tap
they use for every other rummie that walks in there. How does one get his
own tap? Is it expensive? You must drink a lot of beer.

********** end excerpt from 'Corruption at Salomon Brothers' **********
This transfer of proprietary source code that USED to be owned by AT&T
did not even qualify for action. Salomon legal stated Salomon has a lower
obligation for third-party copyrights than they did for software they
contracted for themselves,
