    New horns!

    Thanks for info. That was a most informative link, pictures were proof of the pudding. I believe I will implement the brass tacks. Just hope there's no wild thing going on with Cell-Phones now. Like don't use your Cell while gassing up or loading up one's horn. Just kidding! I think!
