Tom:
Thanks for the encouraging words. My interest in the lowfer hobby
started long ago from reading magazine articles published back in the
70's. Since retirement, I have finally found the time to learn more
about the hobby. The Internet and Mailing Lists like this one has been a
great knowledge resource. I hope that I can add a little more to that
information base.
Have a nice day.
