Dave, I'll bet you and I crossed paths there many times and never knew each 
other.  I'm thinking that was the early days for Peter in Appleton, too.  Am 
I right, Peter?  Exactly what year was it that you kept a pet chicken in 
your dorm room?  ;-)  Still think that was funny as hell.  Lots of great 
memories of those days at RA.

Ron, you would have loved it back then.  We need to get together again for 
the KIC before the Spridget 50th this year whether you race it or not.  I've 
got some Spridget racers from out of state that want to meet up this year.

I was there and to stand just south of the Pagoda as they crossed the
start line was totally awesome!  Earplugs?  We didn't wear no stinking
earplugs...what'd you say??  "I feel the earth move under my feet,...", C.K.
The Bruce and Denny show was something to behold.
