[Dewey-Darrow] Dewey-darrow Digest, Vol 41, Issue 9

Hi Everyone,

I really appreciate everyone sharing about their experiences.  I think the
alarm may be the way to go,  but on that note I would like to suggest that
anyone considering an alarm system check the internet for customer-reviews
of the different alarm systems.  One alarm system had sales people going
door to door here last summer and I was just about convinced until I did
some research about their services, selling practices and reliability.  I
intend to look into a variety of systems now, however.

Take care, watch out for your neighbors, and keep your doors and windows
locked!
