"Thanks for the Memories" Those are Bob Hope's words, but the sentiment is mine. Thanks to everyone who helped put this information together. The project turned out to be a lot of fun. We remember the good times more than the bad and that's fortunate because the good times are more fun to write about. After running this information past a computer spelling checker and proofreading it myself (twice), I handed it over to my wife, Phyllis. She pointed out several additional errors and also kindly made some recommenda­ tions that resulted in a better looking list. Any errors that remain are mine. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed compiling it. My only regret is that I didn't have the time necessary to follow up and wrench stories out of those who planned to respond but kept putting it off. But we'll be doing this again. And I'll be back.
