    Ummmm...Mr. Surpin, Admitting that you have never used a Meco Midget,
    and then suggesting that Mr. Revere is in some way benefiting from
    recommending the Midget, may have the rest of us believing that you
    don't have both oars in the water. The Meco Midget is no longer in
    production. Hard to draw a commission from a discontinued item. 

    I bought my frst Midget after the end of the copper tip of my Little
    Torch melted onto a platinum piece I was welding. Trying to push a
    device that was inadequate for the job. I stress inadequate 

    I have recently located and purchased my second Midget from a
    supplier's remaining stock, having used the previous one for more
    than 10 years and requiring a second. My shop uses The Little Torches
    as well, and a Presto-Lite. You may be able to use the Little Torch
    for all of your needs, but it will not do everything, and that is
    precisely why Mr. Revere recommended the Midget. It will, if pressed,
    work as the only torch a shop would ever need. 

    Surely, Mr. Revere will accept your apology.
