[gene lucas <geneluca@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the report, Tom.  I would have liked to have talked with 
David Levy who was scheduled to speak at the SpaceFest today.... I had 
seen the flier at RTMC, and the web pages, but in the end opted out, 
partly due to other activities (like the EVAC meeting on Friday).  I 
travelled up to Chino Valley today for a ValleyMetal home shop club 
meeting -- Beevo Van Orden was also in attendance.  Nice and cool, it 
rained lightly two times.
