[Boatanchors] Ham Radio Estate Sale Tomorrow- Dallas

[rbethman]

I submit that this is someone's idea of a "List Joke"!

Let's see, Duane in Michigan, Myself in Virginia, and God only knows HOW 
MANY folks that are waaaaaaaay too many states away to even DREAM of 
attending an estate sale in Dallas in about 15 hours!

There ought to be some "thought" given with these GRAND announcements!  
It "may" even improve attendance!
