- I had been expecting post-election price increases but at the
- Pomona gun show in mid-November I didn't see any evidence of
- significant price increases. In fact, I didn't see any
- indications of shortages or anything else that I might have
- expected after the election. Maybe the shortages won't develop
- until inauguration day??

- On a loosely related note, there was a booth there selling Wenol
- so I bought some. They were quite insistent that I take one of
- their cards so that I could buy some more when I run out. The
- card says:
-
- 1410 West Winton Ave.
- Hayward, CA 94545
- 510-732-5700
- 510-786-2303 FAX
-
- An interesting claim in their literature is that Wenol is a
- *non*abrasive polish. I am very curious how you polish something
- without using abrasives. I'll have to try it on some test objects.
