My concern would also be that stores that still have R C A units large
or small on their shelves and or wharehouses, what happens. will that
store be responsible to say there is no warranties as of whatever
date? ? is it a sale" as is".I called a Target in Albany,NY and a
Staples nearby me and both said they knew nothing about R C a and a
problem . well they are full of stuff as email directives are flying
thru all the big chain stores s to the problems and they have no clue
as to what they might do with a product they hafe already paid for.

Historical Slumming:
The act of visiting locations such as diners, smokestack
industrial sites, rural villages -- locations where time appears to
have been frozen many years back -- so as to experience relief when
one returns back to "the present."
