Hi Derek,

<<<   Is there any video of the meet???   >>>

Sorry, Derek, but no video was shot of the get-together. I thought about bringing my camcorder to record the event, but figured that my chances of escaping in one piece after recording our (mature) appearances would be slim.

73, Gary

individuals, despite our tendency to sacrifice sleep and comfort to chase the 
same big-gun TP's over and over each morning.

sunrise enhancement boost the Asians soon fizzled out, one by one. 972-HLCA and 
1566-HLAZ were the sole survivors after 1500 (both with fair signals, in and 
out), but they soon bit the dust as well.
