Rippen Bridge?

[JIMRPT@AOL.COM]

Brian;

 Ron could not bring himself to plagiarize Poe but I can :-)



"And the Rippen, bass not working, still is sitting, still is sitting 
On the pallid dust of time just in front of the chamber door; 
And his keyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming, 
And the lamplight o'er him streaming throws the bridges shadow on the floor; 
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor 
Shall be lifted--nevermore!"

I think that about sums up my feeling of repairing a Rippen. But, if needs you
must, Rons suggestion is excellent.
