Dan, I'm afraid I *am* that old. I suspect only a small part of the
list is as old or older than I. Will be 76 in mid-October. Still
running my inspection business, but only on a part time basis and I even
get to sell a photo once in a while.

It was certainly larger than the normal teardrop shaped balloons used
for traveling across the surface or ascending to altitude, but some of
the other "fancy" balloons, like the Barn, are about the size of the
flag.
The owner/operator of the flag balloon dreamed of a balloon of the
nature decades ago. In the aftermath of 9/11, however, it became
feasible to raise the $150,000 needed to complete the design and
construct it.
BTW, Paul, why is your email address "pentax1941"? You certainly
can't be that old. <G>

Being old doesn't seem so old now that I'm old.
