Re: Open wheel racing today in England
Amazing cars!? If you are there, look
up Jim Bartel, the Shadow CanAm team owner.
If Goodwood was to approve the entry,
Jim's 1909 Christie reproduction could be in that race by 2026.?
That would be so cool to see.

I bought it in Portland Oregon a couple of years before you bought it. It came with a very nicely made engine stand that supposedly came from Eddie Meyers shop. I wish I could offer more information but that is all I have for now.?

Re: Way, way off topic ... on our own Gene Ingram
Kudos to the legion of Ham operators, who have provided so much public support in times of need and disaster, even to the present day when floods, earthquakes, etc. destroy the infrastructure needed to support cell phones, internet, and media broadcasts.
When our family spent four years in Europe in the '50s, phone was erratic and expensive. Our only contact with stateside family was the MARS station patching phone links to a helpful Ham near our contact. When Dad had an unaccompanied year tour to Eniwetok for H-bomb tests, those Ham patches kept us in touch.

While many of us will be enjoying a full or partial eclipse of the sun, our own Gene Ingram will be joining a group of ham radio operators to establish radio contacts and communications.? Information gathered from these communications will ultimately allow a research community to document how a solar eclipse affects the ionosphere and radio communications (it is the ionosphere that provides the “bounce” for radio signals).? ?

I hope they beat his ass in jail. He deserves a near end-of-life beating for that.
Geez, accosting a 103 year-old man.
Thanks for letting us know,
Bill
P.S. Missed you at breakfast, Bob. I made it for the first in at least a month and got caught up in traffic while the runners went through the streets. Cliff, gave me some good directions as I don't know much of anything in that part of KCMO.

I heard rumors of this, and asked his good friend Doug to fill me in. I really hope he's well ... a treasure to us all.

8:49AM ... Just off the phone with Ed.? He's Ok and in good spirits.?
He gave me a brief description of what happened on the street near his home in Los Angeles.?
A derelict fellow approached him, knocked Ed down and took off with Ed's cell phone.? Ed called the police, and the police used the "find" feature on Ed's phone to track the GD-SOB down.??
?
Ed was far more nominal about it than I was, and that's an understatement. He sounded fine, said he'll have to be more careful in the future and (since I told him that a lot of his friends were very concerned) he asked that I thank them for worrying about him.??
?
I'm still shaking.? -Stokes

(pix is of two Eds ... Isky and Pink, and Alex Xydias at a recent birthday party ... all have passed 100!)
