Dear Group: Firstly I am delighted that my questions about the type setter have elicited so many helpful responses, and I sincerely thank you for them. I have two problems with Sam's behavior concerning investing so much money in the Paige type setter. It is by no means up to me to judge Clemens or anyone else for that matter, but having said that, Judging is exactly what I am going to do. Firstly, investing money, especially that amount of money, in a machine with 3000 moving parts would seem a bit reckless at best. Secondly, if Sam had been a single man, I might have understood his taking such a risk, but he wasn't single. Not only did the failure of the machine and the unwise gamble on Sam's part harm him, but more importantly, it reeked financial and emotional havoc on his entire family. While I am by no means suggesting that God punished him for his conduct, if memory serves me correctly, Sam was on tour to compensate his financial loss when he learned of Susie's illness and impending death. If it weren't for that damned machine, he would have been there for Susie which I am certain must have caused him to feel guilty, and well he might. The judgmental brat, Camy
