To one of the nicest, and most helpful gentlemen I've ever had the pleasure of meeting (without actually physically meeting), a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you !!!

I'm wondering if your phone number is the same as it was 20 years ago? I'll give you a call.

Thanks to all on this thread. It is great to hear comments from folks that haven’t posted for some time (and from guys I have never worked directly with).

I do have some “old guy’s” advice for all – don’t wait until you are 87 to try to start or finish your “next project”! Arnie Beswick is about the only one that time doesn’t seem to bother.

Again, thanks to all for the kind words.

Jim Hand
