Two to Tango at the Red Cross

(oh, by the way, nice pick up Adam, grrrrrrrrrumble <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>)<br /><br />And speaking of RED CROSS brand, why are they so scarce/rare ???<br />I suspect it was an ATC brand. Was it an expensive product (that was too pricey for average customer), a crappy product (that no one liked), or, probably, a very local issue ???
