Gunnar!!! How the hell are you?
I think the "reunion" is basically Dan's doing...I know he reached out to
me, asked me to drop in; we've seen John Kenny, Dan, Ty, Fred, some of ye
olde gang...I was just thinking the other day about Aristophanes; Alex;
Sam
Sands, Susan Hogarth...the list of the Lost just goes on. I, too, hadn't
really planned to post anything, but when I saw John's posting, well, why
not?
If you're researching for Motorola, what part of the world are you in?
Regards,
Hitch
