You know, down here in the States, technology has advanced to the point where we
don't have to hand-crank our television sets to make them run.  We can just plug

to operate.  Seems UPS trucks have neither radios nor cigarette lighters, and he
got sick of paying for batteries (I would have just stocked up on NiMHs).
