@farmerman,
I found the phone number, via an old address book of mine, back in a corner. Now, when to use it, maybe noon? introduce myself to his wife if it's she that gets my odd call (he knows my voice and vice versa), me still being hard of hearing. I hope not to disturb them - I still remember stories by Diane and Dys about how wonderful their group meeting was, Dys and Diane, John and Luchi. Ok, I admitted his first name is John. So are many people's. He and I mentioned her name before on a2k, but were fairly spare using it.
I worry.
For anyone who didn't know or forgets, he and I met at the Phoenix airport in front of the soda machines for something like fifteen minutes before I had to get in line for the next plane; mutually glad to meet in person.
