Kyle,
We look forward to it! Good luck tomorrow (or if you read this
afterwards, hope the presentation went well)!

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one
persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all
progress depends on the unreasonable man.

I resemble that remark, Bobby! I'm one of those nuts, I guess. I have
a safe-full of milspec 7.62X51mm (.308) rifles that my daddy helped me
pick up over the years. He was a "small arms design specialist" in the
Corps, though, strangely enough, he never had a duty station at Quantico
long enough for us to move there--except for TDY. Then again, maybe he
did and Momma just didn't want to move us to Va.
Are you guys like me, in that you have half-dozen hobbies where you get
fired up over one for about six months. The passion wanes, so you move
onto something else for a while, so on and so forth. Eventually you're
back where you started.
BTW, I have been SO remiss about writing to the list. I have a BIG
presentation due Wednesday morning, but after that I'm going to tackle
each list subject for the last three months--one-by-one. Get ready for
some long, windy, opinionated and (probably) boring emails.
Take care, y'all
-Kyle
