Steve:

I wouldn't know you lacked experience as net control from how you did last 
night, and I'm being totally honest when I say this.

You and all of those handling check-ins did a great job, and I'll be willing 
to do my part sometime if we can get it so that I can hear a reasonable 
number of stations reasonably well here in semi-rural Central Lower 
Michigan.  It always amazes me that, even though we're in a semi-rural area, 
I managed to pick a house with a power-line running right through the 
northwest corner of my property.  Just didn't ask the right questions at the 
right time, I guess, when we bought this house almost 20 years ago.
