Although I longed for delivery, I knew the need for the parts would
still be there when they arrived.  And knowing what was coming, I was
able to increase their usefulness through trades and purchases in the
interim.

So I guess my narrow focus helps me tolerate the timeline.  In any case,
you can bet the rent Todd is paying attention so this discussion won't
go for naught.
