I need to correct and apologize to Jeff for my earlier post.

I reported a rumor as a fact without checking it out.

I wrote, " Jeff Haworth bought one of Kent Wilcox's LAT hoods and then had a 
"small batch" of copies made."

While it is true that Jeff bought one of Kent's hoods (ten years ago) and it 
is also true that Jeff made a batch of LAT reproductions the implication 
that Jeff copied the hood he bought from Kent is incorrect. Jeff has let me 
know that the hood he copied was not the one he bought from Kent. I stand 
corrected and apologize!
