How could you forget about the Frankenheap!!!  He still posts on the 
mercedesmailinglist.com list  the email he uses to send to that 
address is [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Its hard to imagine that a guy as talanted as he is has problems finding 
work  guess its just a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong 
time a bunch.  Then again I'm still in college and am naive enough to 
believe skill and merit gets you jobs!  Hopefully his luck improves!!

He caught wind of the 617s for free, and told me to put them in Gump.  
Seems he is not working now, but has chosen to not be on the list.  Did 
we say awful things to him, or is there some sort of yoohoo list or R/E 
list thing?


Some one should figure out what he deal is
