<VV> VV Names - little Corvair

[J R Read_HML]

Oh,

Perhaps I should add... Lon Wall's FROM name is Corvairs (gee - surprise), 
yours is LonzoVair - another surprise?  While I was going through the "how 
many" responses, I only saw 3 or 4 that I would classify as "hidden."  The 
rest were obvious - either in the signature or in the FROM line.

Note - I've updated the signature to give a clue where I am.

'65 Monza Convertible 4/140
'66 beater Coupe - "icemobile" 4/140
