Again, thank you all from the bottom of my heart! Dad and I played Strat on the dining room table in the late 70s and early 80s. Dad and I conversations about BruceF, DOhowser1, and... Ol' Chomsky; and wondered how you did it! You guys are great! Happy to be
apart this community...and Dad was too! See you guys in the salt-mines - the beautiful game of strat!
With sincere gratitude,

Oh, and LABRATORY! He would study your stuff...and then do whatever he wanted!! :)

Also, to answer one of your questions. Dad was medic in the Korean "conflict". He was stationed in Hawai 50 - 52. Too young for WW2.
