Welcome to BP Preservationeers!

 >>My only regret was not getting to
spend much time with John. <<

You'll get over it. I'm not giving any talks at Chicago, just going to 
learn what I can from Duffy and the Yapperman about paint and windows, 
stockpiling ammo for the good battle against the corporateers.

Preservationeers vs. Corporateers

Hey! Come on guys, let's build a fort. Let's move on the 
"thinktank/website" old-home owners advocacy plan. Folks are "just about 
fed up to here" with the building industry scams and some are starting 
to recognize that traditional methods and values still make sense. I 
think others like Walter Jowers, Judy Anderson in Vermont, the North 
American Indagators, Homeowners Against Deficient Dwellings, and the 
Preservationeers here at BP would jump into the frey.

by hammer and hand great works do stand
by pen and thought best words are wrought
