Thanks Larry. You told me what the bubble thing was; so, I figured you
would eventually go to my site and you would eventually tell me what the
power thingies are. I figured you would get a laugh if I asked by name.
I like the (wait for it) part of the response.
Thanks again,
Chris
PS. If the power thingies are on trains (like the Metroliner) are they call
train poles?
