Sciortino Coil Maker)

[David ilvedson]

Bill,

I think it is clear to the List that this simply a case of 
semantics.  I have no doubt that Ralph is clear on the need for 
a beckett.  It would have much easier if Ralph would have  
simply acknowledged what he means by beckett (is it two t's) in 
his follow-up posts rather than lambasting Bill.  As I have 
stated in a previous post, you do need a beckett!  And no, I am 
not simply trying to stay of the "baloney list".  I'm sure I'm 
already on it.  I mean who isn't?
