Alma, which is better and why?  When I was a kid back in the
40's I remember every thing being 50 cycle.  I think I can remember 
that they changed it to 60 ccycle.

I grew up in Orange County in SoCal.  Was it only SoCal Edison? I
had to leave 'cause I was a social outcast.  I voted Democrat after 
Reagan's first term as Governor.  He destroyed the best school system 
in the US (IMHO).
