OLFers,

Our own Kevin Gallagher is in the hospital. His wife was just in a serious car accident in January, so they're having a pretty rough year so far. Here's a post from his wife on AGF.

He and his loved ones are in my thoughts and prayers. Man-- seems like for Kevin, if it weren't for bad luck he'd have no luck at all.

If we need to do another group thing, count me in. Nowadays I might have to contribute some kind of nice tool or something for an auction.

Since I am no real luthier, I must say that this place calls to me as much for the fellowship as the shared information.We are indeed a fortunate group here and this spirit of caring has never fallen away in all of the years I have been around.Mike T.
