    Just get a fire engine with cannon.

    Open fire on everything with a tanker of bleach solution in support on the 8 inch intake hose.

    Oh yes. I recall that in history.

    Thats not my intention, believe me. I have a taste for gigantism in context of humor versus little humans who try to do things with a 2 gallon garden sprayer. =) I was very annoyed at the sad and pathetic spraying. Squeak... come on now...

    Ok I get what you are saying but here is what I am getting at ... I may not explain it well enough for everyone to understand but here goes, we want to have a free market here, that means other things like the guy selling diesel for $30 is also a part of a free market and the freedoms that come with it. we have capacity, we want to name our own price and don't want to have government involved with helping us or fixing prices or anything else so it applies to everything, not just our industry.

    I hate agreeing with this as price gouging and greed seem so wrong to me. But if I can use the current situation to get a better rate or force a better deal really I'm no different.

    Its capitalism at its logical finest I suppose, but still leaves a bad taste.

    If you priced 4 track VCR's on Newegg retail from remaining stocks after production ended. As in MINT new condition, unabused and so forth. You find free market pricing ranging as high as 1600 dollars. As the supply of them dwindles.

    We remember buying them for 25 dollars plus tax at the dollar store a few years ago.

    Ultimately we found second hand replacements online from a Kansas County who has migrated from VCR's in their government system. Asked I think 60 and 70 for two each. So they work well for what we do with them.
