<VV> Clay Wispell

[Sethracer at aol.com]

I will miss Clay, and his sense of humor. Clay and I served on the Corsa  
Board together for several years. He was always a voice of reason on the 
Board,  through some complex times. Clay and Larry Claypool did the grunt work 
of  putting together the first Corsa Tech Guide. This was before computer 
set-up  became common and everything was pasted up for the original 
publication. He had  worked in Aerospace, as had I, so we always had a tidbit or two of 
 information to exchange at the Conventions each year. I watched he and 
Carolyn's  offspring grow up each year, as he did mine, I'm sure. Again, I will 
miss him.  God speed, Clay.

For the  newbies,
If memory serves, Clay Wispell was tech Editor before Larry  Claypool was. 
Is 
Craig Nicol still Tech Editor?

And if anyone wants  to know who the hell Bob Helt is, let me know.
