Hey Sue,
Billy Mckenney here.I've got to be the "Mck." You're not in my address book
but we did exchange some e-mails a good 1 1/2 years ago with the picture of
a sparking "trophy".I tried the link but couldn't get thru.I also e-mailed
Weazel once maybe 2 years ago.(Complementing him on his coil).Is anybody
else having trouble getting thru to this link?
Billy
