[R-390] Dave Medley Retirement

[Christian Fandt]

Hi Dave,

Well congratulations on your retirement! The third retirement perhaps? I 
guess after 85 birthdays one deserves to take it easy but because of health 
problems I think it is not quite so pleasing. Please take care of yourself!

Nevertheless, I think I speak for many on the list: You have had a long and 
seemingly rewarding life and we have enjoyed your contributions to the 
R-390 (non-A <g>) world!

But yeoww!!! We may lose your website! Please consider having somebody 
either take over your info-filled website or perhaps someone would offer to 
move the content over to theirs! Of course, the parts which offer your 
restoration/repair services should be removed as this email specifies that 
happening. Would this be an idea you would entertain? Anybody have webspace 
which could handle the content? Chuck Rippel's website would be one of the 
logical choices as it contains a large amount of "A" info but none of us 
can speak for him on this of course.

You see, it seems to be (to me anyway) the only source of info specific to 
the R-390 while there are at least several websites on the R-390A. I have 
the pleasure of owning both and will need some of your info when I get to 
complete restoration of my "non-A" <g> in the next couple of years.

Please stay on the list and keep in touch as much as you are able. There 
may be someone who casts forth a plea for help on a recalcitrant R-390 
which nearly all the rest of us might not have the answer.

Best regards to our friend,

Chris F.
