I recently discovered a treasure trove of ac scope magazines. I scanned them and started an archive over on my website. Take a look. Let me know if you'd like to help add to that archive.

The old names, JD Morris, Jr Hughey, Walt Buescher - all who started as youngsters and worked their way to top management positions before the fall... Just a few names recognized - will read them all tonight. THANKS! This is great. SCOPE ran all the way to the 1980's I think.

Also interesting to see all the optimism about the Terre Haute works that ended up being a disaster.
