Boy do I understand that statement.  Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one
with the vision of where I'm going, where I've been, and finally how tough it
is to get there.  If half the people in America understood the risk, the pain,
the anger, the fears, the joy, the excitement of etreprenuership, they would be
cheering us on Sundays and not the NFL.  Where would this country be if it were
not for the risk takers, the job providers, the capital builders.  But, atlas
too much self absorbtion.  Just a note I think it's been this way for ever.  If
you ever get any spare time which I also seldom do these days, it is fun to
read some of the autobiographys of some of the robber barrons of the 19th
century.  Here locally JJ Hill who built the Great Northern, Northern Pacific
and few other railroads is fun to read about.  Nothing really has changed, men
in his time detested the government interference in their dreams, feared the
socalled "finacial panics" and lectured the country on inprove ing its
productivity.  Sounds like a Tom Peters In  Search for Excellence seminar.
Sorry about that, I think that Tom schtick is great, just had to throw that in.
I beleive they use to call it common sense.  Anyway not much has change except
the tools in which we use to get things done.  Which brings me full circle to
the Model T.  I'll be in Denver next week with the trusty MDL 102, so get back
to you later in the month on the copies of the manual and the disk.  Hang in
there.  By the way I'd like to annouce the birth of bouncing baby beer.  I
litterly just got back two hours ago form the lab and with some tweeks
Fytenburg Wiezen should be born later this spring.  This is the beer I've been
working on for over five years and have pour over 1000 gals down the drian in
perfecting.  Yes as our esteemed, ??? Prisedent likes to say "I know your
pain".  Sorry too about that too many late night radio reruns of Rush.  Talk to
you soon.
