RE: My Apology

["Lewis, Gary M" <Gary.Lewis@West.Boeing.com>]

I should (and am here) publically apologize to Scott and the list for
tossing out that number.  I had no idea that the price was something other
than what I quoted, and as such, should have checked w/Scott before hand.  

I will say that I plan on spending $3xx - $4xx <g> as soon as Scott gets a
2.2 bar solution to the MAC-14 mit der 2.5 bar PT operational.

Scott's products are in my opinion every bit as good as anyone else out
there, at a much reduced price even at the $3xx price.

Again, apologies for pissing anyone off with my vicarious remarks...
Gary
