Hi Ken,

	The year we moved from Fresno to Visalia, several of us pooled our
meager funds and purchased a commemorative plaque, now hanging in the Men's
room, with a photo of you and those two young ladies.  I haven't been to
that Holiday Inn for decades but I'm confident the plaque is still there.

Re: Daytion Hamvention Future?

Whatever happened to Fresno?

Back in the '70s I was taken to Fresno by my San Francisco host Rubin
WA6AHF (SK) and foolishly was entered in the "QLF Contest".    As a
commercial op, I was expected to be very competitive but was soundly beaten
by two 13-year-old girls, one of whom did an encore using both feet.   To a
standing ovation.   It was a humbling experience for me.

The toilets were excellent.
