Hi all,
Well if we can't operate any of the new washing machines then  maybe they 
can some how who knows how make sure no one never needs to wash there close 
again.
I am for sure not going to have any one washing my close for me.
I am sure they can't teach my cat how to do that.
Thanks 73 Matt ka0pqw
