Dan,

     I fell in love with ham radio at 10.  Life got in the way. At 68 I got my 
Technician, General, and Extra tickets plus VE certification in 6 months.  I 
couldn't have done it without your help.  And I couldn't continue to enjoy my 
pursuit at 75 without you perseverance.  Don't let the malcontents get you 
down.  And Thank You.

         73, Chris, WD1E
