Hello
everyone, this week’s bios include Dick Rutan, George Buchkowski, Gary Tompkins, Dean Echenberg and Charlie Neel, it looks like a mostly Misty week. If you live in Central PA, that pretty much sums up every day for the last three months…it may be time to build an ark. Thank you to all who have been a great help in getting your bios complete, 34 in the new format are finished entirely. If your name is on the list (and even if it’s not) please send me your story and data. It’s more expeditious to complete a bio when you supply the information.
