Yep, I really am working hard dealing with my chronic case of P.S. (Procrastination Syndrome)  It will be dealt with just as soon as I get around to it. :zap:

Just as a further note on the ratty looking cord, the important part is still in good shape.  The cord itself was replaced probably 35 yrs ago & still going strong.

The original molded strain relief which I re-used turned to dust 15 years ago & at that time I made a temporary repair by slitting a piece of fuel hose, sliding it over the cord & up into the handle then wrapping with electrical tape in a highly complicated, precisely calculated  tapered fashion to reduce stress on the cord. :thumbup: 

The replacement of the cord will be immediately brought to the attention of the maintenance committee. :beer:

Is this possible ?
