    I still have one of those, along with the anti-static gun that came as a kit.

    Those guns were bringing tall $$$ on eBay.

    I just got rid of mine within the last year after I got an ultrasonic RCM! Figured that old fluid couldn't possibly still be good!
    Still have my Dishwasher brush from the last century. Still use it without the fluid to pickup errant dust particles and cat hair after using the ultrasonic RCM. Also have a later generation version of it that is shaped differently and doesn't do as good a job.

    Everywhere is within walking distance if you have enough time.

    Because no one made a substitute for many years. It's just been in the last ten years that others made a similar product.

    Ah, okay. I was wondering whether you knew of a difference between the original ones, and the "current" Milty Zerostat 3.

    Dang it Scott. I thought you were asking a trivia question of sorts and were going to give us the answer…and I assumed it was going to be funny.

    No way, Paul. I'm all business from here on. No more jokes. Lies, maybe, but no more jokes.
