	You just gave me an idea...  Perhaps I will advertise the following
in audiophile magazines:

*** KNOCK 'EM DEAD with 38-GAUGE SPEAKER INTERCONNECT CABLES ***

	Be the first on your block to have 38 GAUGE speaker interconnect
cables!  That's right, folks, THIRTY-EIGHT GAUGE wire!  Our interconnect
cables are made from the finest [:-)] Belden "Heavy Armored Polythermaleze
High Temperature" wire that is available!
	Why settle for 10-gauge or 12-gauge when you can have a 38?
	Only $ 5.00 per foot!  Order now - don't delay!


	Think I'd have any takers?  :-)
