Here's an an article you'll probably agree with. After you read it you
can substitute your favorite "tools that have gone bad..."

Lutz's article goes a long way in explaining why the trend in quality
merchandise and services seems to be heading south. Another good
example is plane travel. The airlines treat their passengers like they
are a bother instead of like they are customers. However there is
always a way for the well healed traveler to make his journey more
comfortable. There is the first class cabin, and the airlines private
club room at the airport. For the really well healed, perhaps even
including Lutz, there is the Lear jet.

"Heeled" fercrissakes, "heeled". *

Hey Swing,
I don't want to get into a spelling bee, but "heal " looks okay.

Lol ... Yeah, but what disease(s) was he healed of? Sorry man, one was OK,
but two? .... *just blame it on your spell checker. *

I don't know the real entymology, but I think that it referred to a shoe
heel. A well heeled man did not have the heel wear of a poorer man.

I stand corrected on the spelling of heel. This thread is getting
erudite, etymologically speaking.
