Dan; I stand corrected you were the other person that was witness to to that moment. Either way my tongue has recovered from that moment. And I could not think of better memory to share about his passion and persistance. He was trying, and he was doing his best. One of the things that I did learn via Dick's example is that through persistance can come accomplishment. None the less I will miss Dick Hurdy-Gurdy and all. I look forward to reading some of the other stories and anecdotes about Dick. I do not remember the year I met Dick; but I would guess that it was 1868 or 1869 (add 100 years to these numbers for the correct years); either way it was long ago and we have been crossing paths ever since. I belieive that it may have been Dick that drove the night I met Bob Clayton. -E
