   Just saw this on one of my news feeds:   
      
   "In a surprising turn of events, a beloved retailer from the 1980s is    
   making a triumphant return to the retail scene in the US.   
      
   This once-prominent brand, which faced bankruptcy not once but twice,    
   is set to regain its former glory under new ownership.   
      
   The revival of this iconic retailer promises to stir nostalgia among    
   long-time fans and capture the attention of a new generation of    
   shoppers."   
      
   http://tinyurl.com/TRASH-80 for the story as it stands.   
      
   I really miss Radio Shack - not so much for the confusers - but as a    
   source for pieces/parts to fix my aging computers and electronics.
