  No Heath is still in business, however, they have decided to go
with just mail order and close there retail stores.  They lost my
business.  I like the idea of looking at what I am buying before
ordering it, being able to get parts locally, etc..  Let's face it,
trying to get parts for equipment these days is getting to be
more and more of a custom parts business and having a local
source of parts is a big advantage.  Now that they are mail order,
they fall into the same catagory as the rest (equal, no advantage).
They're prices are not as cheap as other mail order houses and
I feel that they have made a grave mistake in their future
business planning.
