[Larry Shapiro]

I will try and respond tomorrow with more detail...
    Last thing for today...
    Most important thing for Lon is is health and happiness..other than 
that,not
    much else matters..
    We have made 5 loads of new parts into the new shop so far,and expect 
about
    5 more today..
    That is about 2400 different new parts so far...
    Thanks to John Sweet for keeping me alive through this,and my other 
friennds
    who have helped make this new project happen,
    Larry
