TIA,
Tim

glider pilot ... for the next few years I plan to concentrate on
sailing.
I'd...

WaltWX
Hi Jim,
Today, Fri 07/01 was the first day of a building warm core high

of close ridge...

Podcasts? by
Bullwinkle
There was a flurry of posts in the couple of weeks prior to the Convention
about getting podcasts of sessions using cell phones.

Thanks,
