[Shop-talk] #!@#*@* Cordless Drill Batteries!!!

[Karl Vacek]

Sent.  If anyone else wants a copy, post me off-list and I'll be glad to 
forward it.  But remember that my friend had pretty poor results - they 
worked for a few charge cycles, then eventually died again.  He bought new 
ones when Sears had a sale.
