Hey Ron,
all that makes perfect sense.  There is a guy about an hour away, Joe 
Bloodgood, I think he had an article about Wurlitzer in Always Jukin a 
couple months ago. He had one I liked and I guess he is not too far away to 
service, however he told me he would charge a large travel fee if he ever 
came to work on the Statesman ....so hopefully a different machine would 
work smoothly for several years, don't kow.  I did sign up for the monthly 
magazine, Always Jukin, but havent received my first copy yet, I am looking 
forward to getting it and educating myself a bit more.

I am happy to report......we are still running!!  Thanks for your wisdom, I 
do pay attention to it!
Jackie
