Must not have laid on the sarcasm quite thick enough   Just thought this was kinda funny and was passing it along!  Some colorful sayings helped me to remember these quite some time ago!

Thanks though!

tim- it a sad thing when sarcasm is not appreciated--i did appreciate the purplish coal -and the reddish red--i think the reddish in the reddish red  black reddish red must denote  a 1% tolerance  resistor--being color blind i find this funnier than most--
