Anne,
	You may picture Rummy on his boat this summer, but if we
continue to get the rail that is forecast, he will spend all his time on
top of it all.  Remember, he is a roofing salesman.  He has not told us
if he has had any calls about roofing.

Good Idea, Slim,
I immediately thought of Roger but he is really working hard 
to get employment. One could skim from Roger's excellent 
technical and adventure writings fromj the archives and I can 
just picture Rummy on his Rhodes this summer with a laptop in 
his cockpit...and of course the Rum drink!!
Anne
