Hi Fred,

****ed me off too. Now the situation is reversed. Too much ego and
not enough go from the republiwhiners. Barry had the courage of his
convictions - the current crop of effete mama's boys don't compare.

I recall that postcards had "just gone up" to 2 cents when I started
kindegarten in 1954. Same time frame that Ohio started their temporary
sales tax of 1%, which is up to 8% now but still "temporary."

Dear Butch and Cecil;
It is good to get confirmation of such events from long ago.
Somehow, I also associate the year that it happened as being the year
when a postal card went from one cent to two cents. The new postal card
had a red square "stamp."
Anyone remember what year that would have been?
Oh. Even then, I was keen on antennas and radio. 73 Mac N8TT
