Re: [Vo]:Richard C Macaulay
From Horace, Many of you I am sure fondly remember the many fun postings here from the Dime Box Saloon by Richard C Macaulay. I was surprised recently to find this obituary for him: http://obit.memorialoakschapel.com/obitdisplay.html?task=Printid=757483 He died Feb. 19, 2010. He had much expertise in the practical generation and use of vortices, as well as the politics of energy and economics in Texas. His contributions and good humor posted from the Dime Box Saloon, his fictitious hangout, have been missed. Thanks, Horace. Nice to hear from you. Richard's DBS was a whimsical place to hang out in. He is probably bartending there right now. Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
RE: [Vo]:Richard C Macaulay
I was afraid of this, back when Richard stopped posting. I had even checked the obits in that area a couple of times when he didn't answer email. ... a true character ... but I'm not so sure the Dime Box was fictitious ? -Original Message- From: Horace Heffner To: Vortex-L Subject: [Vo]:Richard C Macaulay Many of you I am sure fondly remember the many fun postings here from the Dime Box Saloon by Richard C Macaulay.

Re: [Vo]:Richard C Macaulay
Speaking of another old warrior, we have not heard from Mike Carrell in a spell. Actually, for quite some time now. Considering recent events I would have expected something akin to a rebuttal from Mike, particularly in regards to his position, (or defense), of BLP. Mike is up there in years. Several years ago he had what I believe was a minor stroke that slightly impaired his speech. An email I sent to Mike last weekend has not yet been answered. I hope he is vacationing. Can anyone shed any light on the matter? Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks

Maybe not in this plane of reality, whatever it is, but *somewhere*. I liked R.C. We talked quite a bit off-list about many things. All sorts of topics, scientific or otherwise. When he stopped responding, I had hoped it was just due to being busy or perhaps only a transient illness. R.C., wherever you are, take care my friend. And give 'em hell the next time two guys play an ace of diamonds at the same time. And save me a stool at the bar, life's only a few days and full of trouble. I'll walk in the door one day, in the course of time. --Kyle
