I actually didn&#039;t find any examples, but I&#039;m pretty sure that the true sleuths on this site will be able to track-down a few examples, considering that there is a RIC number, etc, etc (please feel free to help a brother out and post any other similar examples, thanks)</span></p><p><span style="color: #0000ff"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: #0000ff">... sorry, I digress ... </span></p><p><span style="color: #0000ff"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: #0000ff">Regardless of other examples, this baby seemed to be asking me for a new permanent home, so who am I to say &quot;no&quot; right? (I quickly struck a sweet deal with one of my few Canadian ancient dealers and now she&#039;s packing her bags and getting ready to move to northern Manitoba, that lucky girl, eh?)</span></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b><span style="color: #ff0000">Sabina, wife of Hadrian.
