Subject:Re: Source for Slider Window Screen

These screens have been such a pain to me in the past that I stopped
selling them way before they have become NLA.  I tried shipping one
three times and wrapped it in bubble wrap, etc. and each time UPS
managed to break it.  They were so cheesy!  If someone is going to go to
the trouble of reproing them, maybe they could make them stronger too!
