I have continued to correspond with him via direct mail, forwarding stuff from the net, etc. We had planned to meet and jump with each other at the USPA Nationals Boogie this year, but at the last minute he had to cancel his plans because his wife was experiencing severe "morning sickness" (she's expecting, obviously). When I returned from the Boogie, Dane asked me to tell him all the gory details of my trip, so of course I complied. It occured to me that I may as well not waste all that typing, so I'll start posting my tales, and his responses, over the next several days. Actually, I'll start with a letter from him that was waiting in my mail box when I returned... * / \ |---/---\---| Ken Scofield C-9355 | Gone | Hewlett-Packard PCD | Jumpin' | Corvallis, OR |-----------| {ucbvax!hplabs, harpo, ogcvax}!hp-pcd!kas P.S. Please excuse the "personal" nature of these letters and tales. I don't have time to retype them for a "generic" audience...
