   Ahhh,..good old Harry.  It was such a shock when he passed away a couple
of years ago.   He & I traded emails talking about our mutual time spent in
the nuke construction industry.  He was a huge character.  Now that he has
passed away his books have skyrocketed in price - I only hope his family is
receiving the increased funding.

   He once told a story about Seinfield showing up at his doorstep with a
terribly running Speedster which he had just had rebuilt.  The builder used
substandard parts, mis-matched parts - you get the picture.  The Maestro
ended up using a 356 industrial engine (one of a number he had bought for
this situation) rebuilding it properly and JS said it ran perfectly - where
before he was afraid to drive more than a few miles from his home now he was
able to explore as far as he wished - with confidence he would make it home
without the assistance of a tow truck.

   He wrote about many of his experiences and I have some of them on Word
document - but it's approx 200 pages. (887kb) which I'll be happy to send -
but its a little large to attach -  ;-)

He certainly is missed -
