1:42
how are you just fine, thank you, Johnny Mitter Turner has me
1:46
to get in touch with you and find out what you're working on at the
1:48
moment. Why nothing? I was thinking of going to New York for a
1:51
couple of days. Were good. Would you be interested in having a case
1:53
for us while you're there? Oh, Pauline, I'm going to New York
1:56
on a vacation. Well, they shouldn't take too much time. And Jhnny,
2:00
it's really one of my most important accounts. Wow, how much commission
2:02
can I figure on? The practically? Nuts? All? Fine? Why
2:08
does Turner foist these things on me? Oh? I guess it's my fault.
2:12
I totally m I thought you might do it as a favor to it,
2:14
were mister Turner? Continental adjustment? Pure? Oh no for you?
2:17
Okay? What is it? Well? Wait? Better still? Why don't
2:21

2:23
I'd love it. I've been wanting to go there for months, you
2:27
know something, I've been waiting for an excuse to take you there for years.
2:30
Eight o'clock falling, eight o'clock night and every weekday night. Bob Bailey
2:43
and The Transcribed Adventures of the Man with the Action packed expensive God America's fabulous
2:46
freelance insurance investigator Australey Johnny Dollar expense accounts submitted by Special Investigator Johnny Doller to
3:04
the Continental Adjustment Bureau for eighteen Elizabeth Avenue, Hartford, Connecticut. The following
3:07
is an accounting of expenditures during my investigation of the Forbes matter. It started
3:13
quite pleasantly, Johnny, let's go back to the table and eat. I'm
3:23
tired of Dan. Yeah, but once you sit down, you'll start talking
3:27
business again. Well, of course I will. I do have a job
3:30
to keep Okay, okay, frustrating girl. Besides, the sooner you clear
3:35
up this case, the longer you have for a vacation in New York,
3:38
I said, okay, yes, thank you. All right, miss Morrice.
3:44
Let's have the bad news. Well, the insurance company is Delaware Eastern
3:46
Liability in New York. Copy, Yes, ma'am. Their client who filed
3:51
the complaint is a large dress manufacturing company, Oh, Century Styles Incorporated.
3:55
Yes, ma'am. Oh, and if you can manage to pick up one
3:58
of their latest creations in my size while you're there, I love you forever,
4:01
yes, ma'am. Now let's stand no, no, wait, the
4:04
auditors found a deficit in their books four thousand, two hundred and eighty five
4:08
dollars. Well, naturally the head of the company wants a settlement. Yes,
4:11
ma'am. Now, and Johnny, your biggest problem will be mister Elliott,
4:15
mister Robert Elliott, who I understand it's something of a personality problem.
4:18
It can't be any more of a problem. And I'm having with you now.
4:23
That's this expensive count adem two twenty eight dollars and sixty three cents trained
4:30
fair and incidentals. Getting from Hartford in Manhattan with me, I took all
4:33
the necessary information concerning the indemnity claim of Century Styles with Delaware Eastern Liability and
4:39
Trust. I arrived at Grand Central at two o five and was checked in
4:43
at the New Western by two thirty air brisk Guyeclaire Weather call expensive count Atom
4:48
three ten cents phone call to Robert p. Elliott, Century Styles Incorporated.
4:53
The ster Elliot City would be happy to see me. So I went right
4:55
over and found a four story building that housed two floors of factory and two
4:59
floors of offices. The factory was the usual crowded, noisy collection of machinery
5:02
and people. The general office is overstuffed and overheated and overcrowded. Girls,
5:08
girls, you'll must get ready, Come on girls, the sam Hill,
5:15
Jenny, you'll just have to reduce. How can we fit you when the
5:18
pins keep popping out? Pardon me, I'm looking for mister Elliott. You
5:21
are true, I'm Robert Elliott. Oh you must be, mister Dollars right.
5:27
Stand by, Jenny, sweet. We all suffer for our our child.
5:30
Now bear up, I'll delive you soon. This way, mister Dollar,
5:33
to a quiet corner. Mister Elliott was small and wary, wearing white
5:43
warachis, green swanks, a corduroy jacket, and a flower print shirt of
5:46
no identifiable color. As I followed them across the large and I like can
5:50
showroom floor that I couldn't help steaming glances at the merchandise animate and inanimates.
5:57
Everything I saw was strictly high class a group of goddesses. Mister Eliot led
6:01
me through a pair of swinging doors into an office with a carpet so thick
6:04
I couldn't see my shoetops. A desk in Russian gray sprawled in one corner
6:10
my office, mister Dollar, I can't tell you how grateful I am that
6:13
you're here, that the insurance company heated my call. I hope we can
6:15
help you straighten this manner up. Well, it's scandalous. It's truly scandalous.
6:19
Five thousand dollars. Really, the complaints said four thousand, two hundred
6:24
and eighty five. Mister Elliot, Well that's almost five thousand. Besides,
6:28
I like to deal in round figures. Brett non be to my auditors and
6:31
they said that you are the very important investigator in insurance circle. I'm flatted.
6:35
Did they happen to leave a copy of their findings? Yes they did,
6:39
They most certainly did. But before I give it to you, I
6:41
must explain how awful this situation is. Please do well, you've no doubt
6:45
how to Patricia's things. No, I don't think Patsy's things wife. Oh,
6:51
you're just joking. I am Patsy's things. In fact, I made
6:55
pats these things. It's our highest price line, you know, eatning dresses.
6:58
Oh you don't say. I definitely to do. Oh the nights of
7:00
thankless work. They're go into creating just one gown, one supreme gown for
7:04
the season. I'm sure I'll tell you, mister Dollar. It's well,
7:08
it's a thankless to ask. In one respect. That's a different story.
7:12
What I'm trying to say is that this lass is devastating me. I mean
7:15
it. I must, I simply must have an adjustment immediately. While the
7:17
insurance company sympathizes with you, mister Elliott will try to adjudicate it as quickly
7:21
as possible. No, that's company, that's very company, Rob Elliott.
7:28
Here, in my opinion, hats are just not important this year. Yeah
7:35
no no, no, no, no no no positively no, no advanced
7:39
layouts on the new line. Not until later, no, not tomorrow.
7:44
No, I can't. I simply cannot anything wrong. But that's what I
7:48
mean. That's what I'm trying to explain. This matter simply must be handled
7:51
with all dispatch, mister Dollar. You see, my firm operates on a
7:56
string. Spider's hair would be more at five thousand dollars, mister Dollar,
8:03
that comparatively small loss is stopping me from showing my new line of packing dress.
8:07
Yes, yes, I must show them before months, Andra, I
8:09
lose my entire opportunity for profit. So you see, I must have compensation
8:13
for the laws I think I get the picture, mister Elliot, are there?
8:16
That was the newspaper calling, And it's terrible. They all want advanced
8:20
viewings of my new line, and I simply can't afford to. I can't
8:22
afford to pay my help to produce the models, mister Dollar. For three
8:26
agonizing months, I worked frantically. I drew, I cut, I stitched,
8:30
and not one warp over for my creation will be exhibited can be exhibited
8:33
unless this matter is settled. And suppose we get down to business. Well,
8:37
a business is that some ruthless brigg and pussy put it off of my
8:39
company's money. Well, do you have any idea? I don't. I
8:41
don't have, no, no, no, not so much as a footprinter's
8:43
rand of hair. And mister Dollar, if you don't find out who it
8:46
was and return my money, I'll be cremated, professionally cremated. That is
8:52
why I might even have to join the foreign legion. Well, don't worry,
8:54
mister Elliot. If your laws is verified, then apparently a reputable auditing
8:58
firm has already done that. I'm going to are you that the insurance company
9:01
will reimburse that loss. And the time it takes to get a checkmate out
9:03
and in the mail. Oh good, I'll be forever grateful. Well,
9:05
when you're in this mood, would you mind me having a little closer rundown
9:09
on what happened? Well, the audit to simply uncovered the shortage. That's
9:13
all I know that much, mister Elliott. May I see their report?
9:16
Yes, of course, yeah. Isn't that bind her? An atrocious frame
9:22
at off? You say so, I'd like to keep this, mister Elliott,
9:24
to verify my report. Of course, mister Dallo, any anything at
9:28
all just saved me. I love mister Elliott. In a fainting condition,
9:35
went back to my hotel and studied the auditor's report. The obvious conclusion after
9:41
an hour's reading was that the funds had been embezzled by someone in the bookkeeping
9:43
department. A series of cruder ratios and bad fumblings indicated that whoever done it
9:48
had been something less than expert. In fact, he or she had been
9:50
almost idiotic. The next morning, I confirm my own findings with mister Brett
9:54
at the auditor's office. We uncovered the lass two days ago and advised mister
9:58
Elliott contact his insurance company first, Sure dull are any reservations on your part.
10:03
No, no, Elliot's cattle legitimate loss here. I'm sending in my
10:07
report today. He should be compensated, and another the two days and he'll
10:11
be relieved. I know about that. I know I met him. Well,
10:15
what's your next step? Oh, we'll pay off Elliots. So I
10:18
want to have heart fail here, but of course we'll try to make recovery.
10:20
I noticed the losses were in book series F six through G ten.
10:24
Yes that you talked to personnel over there at his place. Fellow by name
10:28
of Forbes handled that series for them any accounting office, of course. Oh
10:31
yeah, it's been with Sensory Styles for five years. Where is he now?
10:33
We're still there. I thought it was kind of funny too. I
10:39
fell at pulling a crude job like this and not trying to run out.
10:41
No, he's still working for them. Maybe he isn't the one at that
10:46
Forbes was in charge of those books. I don't see how it could possibly
10:50
be anyone else on either to Why mister Brad, may I use your phone?
10:54
Oh? Sure, help yourself. I notice all the money was stolen
11:00
in the last four weeks. Yes, you think he'd at least have strung
11:03
it out greedy. I guess, yeah, I guess. Hello, District
11:07
Attorney's office. Please, my name's Dollar. I want to talk to someone
11:11
about a warrant embezzling funds, grand theft. I'll hold it. Please Forbes.
11:16
What's his full name? Sheldon Thomas Forbanks. Sheldon Thomas Forbes, bookkeeper
11:22
at Century Styles Incorporated. M good, I'm on my way expense account item
11:31
four three dollars camp fare to the offices of John L. Gregory, Deputy
11:35
District Attorney. I explained the situation of mister greg reinfurnished him with the auditors
11:39
report. An hour later, I was back at Century Styles with our friend
11:43
mister Elliott. Well, if it has to be, it has to be
11:48
there he is, Forbes, there did Sheldon Thomas Forbes was a tall,
11:56
dark complexioned man in his early thirties. His hair was black, straight and
12:00
sleep cropped. His speech is regular, not good, not bad. The
12:03
kind of man you see every day on the street. Somehow, the kind
12:07
of man I hadn't expected. What swipe five thousand dollars? Oh, mister
12:09
Forbes, Yes, this gentleman would like to see you. I feel like
12:15
brutus honage. You're un along, mister Elliot, I'll handle it from here,
12:18
thank you. Hello Sheldon Forbes. Yes, my name's Dollar Continental Adjustment
12:26
Bureau. We represent Delaware Mutual Liability. They cover this firm for losses by
12:31
theft and fire. Uh huh. Two days ago, the auditing firm of
12:33
Bread and Iron Beach located a loss of almost five thousand dollars here. Naturally
12:37
the matter came to our attention. I'd like to talk to you about it.
12:41
Why me? There's every indication that the loss has occurred in the particular
12:46
accounts you've been handling. Huh you do handle books F six through G ten?
12:50
Yes? What do you step away here a minute? Please? Sure?
13:00
Would you look at this? Your figures? Yes, your handwritting?
13:07
Oh, your entries and your initials? Yes? Well what do you have
13:16
to say? Nothing? Look, you know why I'm talking to you.
13:22
Why I came to you first? Yes, still nothing to say? Nothing?
13:30
We aren't you being a little silly? Why I stole the money?
13:35
You've proved? What am I supposed to say? You would admit it?
13:39
How can I deny it? Oh? James, We've got that much covery?
13:43
Now? Well, look, my company is interested in recovery of four
13:46
thousand, two hundred and eighty five dollars. Do you understand I think so
13:52
on our Forbes count of your senses. What do you want to do?
13:54
Go to jail? Or do you want to give the money back? Oh
14:00
that's funny. Well no, I don't think it's funny. I doubt if
14:01
you will. I've got sixteen cents in my pocket. Well that hell,
14:05
where's the money? I haven't got it, mister Della. You have to
14:09
take me to jail. Shall we go? Okay? Johnny Dollar? Raw
14:33
Elliot here, mister Dollar century style. I know, mister Elliott. How
14:37
are you today? Terrible? Mister Dollar, I feel terrible. I'm calling
14:41
from the District Attorney's office. You're there about Sheldon Forbes. Yes, I
14:45
had no idea I'd have to act. They want me to sign a complaint.
14:48
Well that's pretty usual, mister Elliott. Forbes admitted taking the money from
14:50
your firm. He's Gilly is charged. You're the injured party. They want
14:54
to get on with the prosecution. Oh, so you do whatever, they
14:56
say, mister Elliott. Well, will it affect my payment of a payment
15:00
of the claim? No, not a bit. Your checks on the radio
15:01
right now. Oh that's a relief. How about you? Are you going
15:05
back to Hartford? Should I thank you? Now? You can thank me,
15:07
But I'm not going back. My job is just beginning. I have
15:11
to recover the money for the insurance company tonight and every weekday night. Bob
15:24
Bailey in the transcribed Adventures of the Man with the Action Packed Expense Account,
15:28
America's fabulous freelance insurance investigator. It's truly Johnny Dollar. Expense account submitted by
15:43
special Investigator Johnny Dollar the Continental Adjustment Bureau for eighteen Elizabeth Avenue, Hartford,
15:48
Connecticut. The following is an accounting of expenditures during my investigation of the Forbes
15:52
met at theft of nearly five thousand dollars expenses continued Item four. I think
16:00
it is ten dollars deposited on a Reddit car. First stop Cecral Division headquarters,
16:04
where I was informed that Sheldon Thomas Forbes had been formerly a reign and
16:07
was being held in the city jail. Second stop, an address on fifty
16:15
sixth Street, second floor, next to a dental laboratory, and on the
16:18
door it said Edward Gumby, Attorney at law, and below it said walk
16:22
in so I did hello out there, mister Gumby, Yes, sir,
16:29
come on in. It's warmer in here. Edward Gumby was standing in front
16:33
of a gas heater in the inner office, which consisted of nothing more than
16:36
a telephone, a desk, and a dozen law books. He was a
16:38
medium sized man, about forty or so, little tired, little CD bunny
16:44
had a nice grin dollar dollar. Yeah, that's right, mister Gumby.
16:48
You don't know me. I'm with Continental Adjustment Bureau, representing Delaware Eastern Liability
16:52
in this Forbes matter. Oh yes, yes, yes, of course I
16:56
understand you're representing Sheldon Forbes. Is that right? Well, I don't know
17:00
whether it is or not, mister Dollar. I happened to be in magistrate's
17:03
court this morning when Forbes was arraigned. I took him on because he didn't
17:07
have counsel, and the court appointed me. I don't know whether he took
17:11
me on or not. Thanks. New York is the coldest city in the
17:18
world, absolutely the coldest when it's cold. Sure, Look, I don't
17:22
want to take up a lot of your time, mister Gumby. Time I've
17:26
got time, boy, That's all I've got what's on your mind? Your
17:30
client? Mostly he's admitted guilt, but of course we're interested in recovering the
17:33
money he stole. Four thousand, two hundred and eighty five dollars. Yeah,
17:37
I can't blame your company for that. Well, prosecution could probably be
17:41
stopped if we made recovery. Sure. I thought i'd tell you this in
17:47
case you had any influence on Forbes. Well. I appreciate that, mister
17:51
Dollars, very understandable, But as I say, I was court appointed.
17:55
I really haven't talked to him yet, so I'll have to confess I don't
17:57
have any influence with him all yet. Struck me as a nice sort of
18:03
chat. Don't quite get it myself. Probably an explanation for it. Married
18:07
once, I understand, widowed right after the war. He worked for Century
18:12
Styles about five years. Have you talked the police yet, No, I
18:18
understand they're going to work on it today. Maybe they'll have a little more
18:22
information for you about the recovery. Yeah. Probably find the money in an
18:26
old soccer or something like that. That's the way these things generally run,
18:30
you know. I agreed with mister company. That was truly the way these
18:37
kind of cases usually ran. And I was a little surprised that afternoon when
18:41
I spoke to the officers at the city jail, they reported that a complete
18:44
search of Forbes apartment and automobile on earth nothing like the missing money. They
18:48
further reported that they had found no reliable evidence of any material possessions that the
18:52
money could have been spent for my next stop, city jail. He won't
19:03
tell you anything after tramp shut all the time he's been in here, so
19:08
as we've been able to find out, no previous record, no background and
19:12
checking his prince with washing him. I don't know about this one. You
19:18
know, ex cop wise, you know what I mean. Don't give a
19:22
police officer at the time of day. That means he could have been in
19:26
before. On the other hand, it could mean he's just scared meant too.
19:37
Oh, how they're it easy for us? This is mister dollar.
19:41
He wants to talk to color for us. Hie you later, okay,
19:47
thanks, certain r. They're treating you okay, swow what do you want
19:56
I want to talk to you? Well, I don't want to talk to
19:59
you. I don't want to talk to anybody. Why. I just don't
20:03
want to see anybody. That's all now you're acting like a baby. Forbes.
20:07
You don't have to talk to somebody. Don't lecture me, mister insurance
20:10
investigator. I've had all the lectures I want for myself. I don't know
20:17
why you're here. I thought we settled our business yesterday. The whole thing's
20:21
just technicality. I've been arraigned that at my confession, I'll go into a
20:25
court and they'll give me the business. But what are you doing in here
20:30
anyway? Swell day to be outside? Yeah it is. I want to
20:34
smoke. Oh thanks? Oh why are you here to help you out of
20:45
this mess? If you'll let me? It's funny, not a bit.
20:49
Why should you want to help me? Well, it's not because I have
20:52
any use for you. Mister. You're nothing to me but a guy who
20:56
stole a pile of money. My job is to get it back. Four
20:59
thousand, two hundred eighty five dollars. Oh yes, that how about it?
21:04
Forbes, isn't it enough that I'm in jail, that I'll go to
21:08
prison. That's enough for the police, but not for my insurance company.
21:11
Oh, it's too bad about your insurance company. Oh it's too bad about
21:15
you. You're being foolish. A whole or partial recovery can have a great
21:19
deal to do with what happens to you from now on. Three years is
21:22
the minimum sentence, you know, twelve years maximum? I was it worth
21:26
it? Sure, sure, it's worth it, And I don't want to
21:30
be foolish anymore. But I have been foolish. I took it nice bedt
21:34
every dime of it. There's no way to pay it back. What did
21:37
you spend it on? Doesn't make any difference. They make a lot of
21:41
difference. You can redeem it, turn it back. I can't. Why
21:45
did you take the money? All right? Look, your salary is close
21:48
to one hundred a week. You're single. Wasn't that enough to live on?
21:52
Why don't you get out of here? I don't have anything to tell
21:56
You've ever been in trouble before under an the name in another state? They
22:00
consider backgrounds like that when a man comes up to be sentenced forbes. This
22:06
is your first offense. I know. Are you trying to shield someone?
22:08
Why don't you go away? Even trying the market? Did you gamble?
22:12
No? No, just leave me alone. I won't tell you a thing
22:18
if you've bought something with it or gave it to someone if it can be
22:19
recovered in some parts. Oh no, go away and leave me along.
22:26
I'd like to believe me. I would. You're a thief, Forbes,
22:29
and you're gonna get what's coming to you. But I can't leave you along.
22:30
Let's tell you listen to me. If I don't get the information I
22:33
want from you, I'll get it elsewhere. I'm gonna be very honest with
22:37
you. Eastern Delaware wrote a comprehensive policy on Century styles, promising to idemnify
22:42
them and full for every laws caused my fire theft on their premises. In
22:47
case you didn't know, Forbes, an insurance company won't take the war to
22:49
some guy sitting in a jail cell, sitting in a jail cell, feeling
22:52
sorry for himself. Where there's cash to be recovered, you swiped it within
22:56
the last month. You have something to show, or it's somewhere somehow.
23:00
Whatever you spend it on, or whoever you spend it on, remember that
23:03
that money is the same as stolen property, a car or a diamond ring
23:07
or something. If you give it to someone or spend it when it wasn't
23:11
yours, it's still redeemable and we mean to redeem it right now, what
23:15
do you have to say? This won't do you any good. Don't try
23:21
to bulldoze me. I'm no punk or crawling into a drug store when no
23:25
late at night. I'm a college graduate. I've been in the business world
23:29
ten years or better. I know what I want to tell you and what
23:32
I want to keep to myself. And I don't want to talk to you
23:34
about this, you or anybody else. I can't make it any clearer than
23:41
that. Do you understand? And there's no way an old person who can
23:44
make me talk about it. I took the lousy money. I've admitted that
23:49
I did a bad job of it. You caught me. I confessed,
23:52
and you've got me. Now what more is there? That's the whole story.
24:02
Okay, have it your way, Forbes go just go on my way
24:19
out. I saw his attorney, Edward Gumby, on his way to see
24:22
Forbes. I waited around the sergeant's disk Accidentally, on purpose, I glanced
24:26
at the admitted visitors register. Only two people had contacted Forbes since his arrest,
24:32
Gumby and myself. That struck me as odd. I glanced at his
24:37
folder named no Close relatives name no one. In fact, I was thinking
24:41
about that when Gumby came out from his visit camby looking worn up. Hi
24:48
to do not so good? Hey, tell me something. He asked you
24:52
to contact a girl or anyone. Nope, I don't think he has a
24:56
girl. I don't think he has anybody. I want some cost Yeah,
25:00
good idea. We slushed across the street and found a diner expensive count item
25:04
five forty two cents coffee and sinkers for red Gumby and myself. I think
25:11
you're gonna strike out. I already have, and I think I have to.
25:18
You know what I've been talking to him about in there all this time,
25:21
the same thing as you restitutions. But he won't open his mouth about
25:25
it. He did say one thing, though, He wants me to wave
25:29
a jury trial and go up for sentencing. What yeah, plead guilly and
25:33
take it. He's sure to get at least three years. What's can I
25:41
do? Any ideas well? I've got a lot of ideas dollar and all
25:45
of them make me sick inside. That boy's not a criminal. He took
25:51
that money because he was desperate about something. You know that from the awkward
25:53
way he took it. He spent it on something, and he won't talk
25:57
about it. But now he's about to ruin his whole life. In spite
26:02
of what you or I or anybody else tries to do for him. All
26:04
he has to do is give back the money or promised restitution, or call
26:08
up a friend and borrow it. With his clean background, the court had
26:12
listened to a mercy PLEA you told him all this. I told him,
26:17
I told him, and you told him. And what does he do?
26:19
He waves his right. I tell you, I'm gonna hate to file this
26:26
waiver, but I've got to do him. Yeah, now I feel more
26:30
coffee, you know, ohing Dollar. You know what Forbes is what he's
26:40
something I call a calendar job. Calendar John thirty three years or not.
26:45
And I'll think about that. Born with one war, just ended raised in
26:51
a depression, and then bangal another war. You might say, the first
26:56
twenty five years of his life nothing but war depression. Are the effects thereof
27:03
a calendar job. Apparently it's what he wants. But mister Dollar, I'm
27:12
gonna hate to see him go to prison. You know something, mister Gumby
27:17
so am I There'll be another intriguing episode in our story of the Forbes Matter
27:37
Tomorrow Tomorrow, a sudden twist in the case that throws all the usual theories
27:41
right out the window. The unexpected Join us, won't you? Yours Truly,
27:48
Johnny Dollar? Yours Truly Johnny Dollar is starring Bob Bailey, is transcribed
27:57
in Hollywood, written by John Dawson. It is produced and directed by Jack
28:02
Johnstone. Be sure to join us tomorrow night at same time and station for
28:06
the next exciting episode of Yours Truly Johnny Dollar. Roy Rowan speaking welcome back.
29:12
This definitely looks to be one of those cases that relies on human drama
29:18
very much and not so much a great mystery, at least the way it's
29:29
working out now now, I do want to know it. I've had a
29:32
couple of listeners email me about this that fortunately many of you, perhaps even
29:37
the majority, when you received episode nine seven three had the programs backwards.
29:48
We had just started using Johnny Dowler ahead of the Carter Brown, and it
29:57
had it in reverse. There's a slight miscommunication between myself and Andrew on the
30:06
editing, so that should be fixed. I do apologize for the difficulty on
30:10
that, but we should be clear going forward. All right, Well,
30:15
that'll actually do it for today. We'll be back on Wednesday with Part three
30:21
and Part four of the Forbes Matter. In the meantime, send your comments
30:25
to Box thirteen at Great Detectors dot net from Boise, Idaho. I'm also
30:30
reminding you follow us on Twitter at Radio Detectors. But for now I'm signing off.
