My friend Bart, I've known for about 15 years, since Colorado and he is the #1 reason I was doing robotic research in Maryland instead of remaining in my little hidden valley forever.... I'm still somewhat UNDECIDED whether or not he did me a favor, but BART when you read this "Thanks!" ha ha

>RadioRay ..._ ._

Ps. Bart and my girlfriend at that time; Teresa helped me to bring my first sail boatl from Virgina's eastern shore up to the northern Chesapeake Bay. The weather turned into NASTY Nor'Easter and we had our share of adventures. To show my gratitude for Bart and Teresa helping me so much, I ceremoniously puked over the side, but the winds and waves deposited in on Bart at the helm... He DID get his revenge, but I'll save that story for later.

Howdy Ray,
I believe it is a fascinating part of God's design that we can enrich
our minds on a sea so calm we must search for things to fill our
normally busy senses, or equally on a sea so rough we fear for our well
being and hone every movement for preservation thereof.

Enjoy the former, the latter is still to come I am sure, but that's what
life is all about.
It does my heart good to hear Rayray bein happy!!
Bart
