OKAY EVERYONE, 8>)
  Lets all go take an ant-acid, have a cup of coffee, & try ot meet each other 
one
day in person.
  I have met several of the listers, & talked to even more on the phone, & 
havent
found a bad person yet.  I personally hope one day to meet Laura, and Conn, and
Brad, & everyone else.  I expect them all to be great people. Excellent points 
have
been made, lets all take them as they were meant & go back to cars.  8>)  By the
way, Conn, when do you plan to make it to Appleton????

LAURA ....... Personnally, I would like to meet you, as you sound interesting to
me.  I have a lot of respect for people like you & Susan Hensley who seem to 
know
something about what you are doing; have taken on a hobby / sport dominated by 
men,
because you enjoy it; & seem to do well.  You are both on my "want to meet" 
list.
Keep going & have fun. 8>)
