Not that you are not who you say your are that is ... just kidding

LOL.

Have you seen the subreddit on reddit.com for north korea, i think its http://www.reddit.com/r/pyuong or however you spell their capital city? Im not racist or patriot or anything but its all "Great leader this and bad america that" and anyone who doesnt say anything amazing about the perfect total leader and terrible americans get insta-banned.

Alas, Bill told me he was moving from DC to Alabama 4 years ago and I have not heard from him since

I've sent him several emails and postcards, so all I can assume is he does not wish contact, or something worse. Hopefully, he is ok.

No word of Bill either, but I've only really been in contact with a D.W. who has been kind enough to send me plans, layouts, and drawings of 571. Even though he says there's no reason they shouldn't be publicly available I'm hanging onto them my little secret.

And these guys dont want a cheque (of course no one at that age knows what a PayPal is) or anything, just the same love we share for these boats.

*Sigh* what a generation.

Unfortunately of this list of over 650 crew members I was e-mailed he is not on the list, not even on the "no contact" list.
