And frequently decorate the tree with them. That is a nice display, Jeff! The local hardware store up until this year offered replacement C6 bulbs, which pleased me. I don't see them out this year. This hardware store is a wonderful relic from the past, with rows of little drawers all the way up to the 22 foot high pressed tin ceiling. They still have and use their old-style light bulb testers, including one for fluorescent tubes and starters. - John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
