My thanks for all the responses to my inquiry concerning my heater.
Now I understand. And I have another question.

I was looking at a Sony Walkman WM10 model II, which is the skinny
one, in a store. The buttons kept sticking when I tried it. And the
max volume was still comfortable, which I consider too low. (I have
a Toshiba tiny FM personal radio which can quickly make you deaf.)

So I asked my sister, who has a WM10-II what her experience was.
It was the same for her, the buttons stick on hers. I am starting
to think this model has a design problem and is something to avoid.

Does this seem like a reasonable assessment or have I just been
unlucky in choosing samples? And is there a "walkman" cassette player
you can recommend? I already have a personal radio so I don't need
the radio part. Would it be too much to hope for Nakamichi to come
out with a personal cassette player?

 This may not even represent my opinion, much less AMD's.
