Jim I think both of you guys and many others have
been among the missing for a long time. Otheres
still hanging around when there is no commo. I
will say this about that...If you have not sent
any messages in months or even years how about
sending a message telling us others that you are
still alive and kicking. If you cannot do two
finger typing anymore have some one get a volunteer to do it for you.
