RE: 79 spica spider quit

["Jack Chesley" <jwchesley@domain.elided>]

Thanks for the spica primer Brian!!,
   This year marks my entry into the 'modern' world, with the purchase of the
spica spider and the bosch 164, I finally have non-weber alfas... after 25
years playing with them.  Maybe I should put a set on the spider .. a couple
of pumps and it'd start at 20 below, just like the others.<g>
