I remember Butch starting something with Fred about having to hitch the wagon to mule to drive into town to use a dial up modem at crank phone to connect to the internet and post on the forum. We all piled on and got carried away a bit much with ganging up on Fred over that one. I got to meet Fred in person at the Boonville GOTO in 2006 and I guess make amends for that enough that he invited me later in early 2007 to visit him while I was on a business trip out east. I got the privilege of seeing Uncle Bill and Fred Wilke's collections on that visit to see all their stuff (along with Fred's). Mike

Last I heard of Okie, he was a wanted man. I was able to help a few get stuff recovered, but not all. I have my opinions on where he is.
