I only heard from them on Thursday, as their phones have been out since Sandy hit. The facility came through unscathed, and more importantly, Bill is fine!

I am heading up there today, and will gladly convery your best wishes to him for his birthday!

  1. That's wonderful! Thanks for updating us, Dave. I'm so glad he and everyone at the facility came through unscathed.

  3. Wanted to pop in and say hi, hadn't been in touch for too long and it looks like I've got a lot of catching up to do. I did manage to get some curating done recently & hope to give you a contribution or two soon. Special thanks for the Mantlo updates, keep up the great work!
