Annap; thanks for the invite. I'll be doing good to get to MUDSTOCK99 in Montana. I would LOVE to come your way, as my twwin grandsons are in CT and just turning a year on May 26th, but it'll have to wait this year.

I've been on the Mudcat since the end of Dec. 1998. An editorial on the Colorado massacre I just wrote was published here and in a national-by-subscription paper, in which I mentioned the Mudcat a lot. I'm hoping my article was what enticed her to join in. Course she may've known about it all along. At any rate, I am excited as all get out to have another Mudcateer in our wide and open spaces!

You guys are wonderful!
