Tone was my go to for as long as it lasted..... still have a few bars left that I'm rationing for their duration. Had I known Tone was gonna vanish for good during the pandemic, I woulda stockpiled a multi-lifetime supply. In the meantime, the Dial glycerin based flavors are palatable, and some of Dove's non-potent, and Men's + flavors are holding their own. In the non-bar department, Mrs. Buzz m

Quotemodelamac   Clone to an external drive, erase the M1 and take your chances. The clone will look like the M1 to the M2.   So are you saying? or just hoping? that the new CCC will play nice enough w/ an external clone, that it'll be just like being back in Catalina again? Issue is sending M1 down the road before M2 is in da house, so there won't be any do-overs. If it doesn't wor
