     In the past, I have asked my Stihl dealer about electric 
chainsaws, and the price he quoted me seemed too high, though I can't 
remember what it was.  However, in view of this:

     I decided to investigate again, and this time the price seemed 
reasonable.  So, tomorrow or the next day, I should take delivery on 
a Stihl electric (MSE 220) which will use the same size blade, chain, 
and all other accessories as my trusty Stihl 036.

     Thanks for the push, Rob.
