Now, where did I leave that aquarium pump... grin!


Turns out that you can pick up a small aquarium pump and 25ft of air
line from WalMart for $6+3US. Probably cheaper at a thrift shop, but
I suspect the're fairly rare items.


Hmm -- what does "$6+3US" mean? six dollars and thirty cents?
Or was it some weird (extended ASCII) character which did not print
properly on my system?

As for a small aquarium pump -- that strikes me as something
which most of us could make rather easily (and enjoy making) in our
shops (and more in line with the "Subject: " header. We are only
overgrown kids, after all. :-)

Enjoy,
DoN.
