you can apply all you want



actually reminds me of when our local then teenager John Bird submitted for his 100km Kolstad pin and the SSA office figured it was a joke since the 'other' John Bird who had been on the US team was *ahem* well over 26. A few phone calls and it was discovered that there was more than one John Bird in the SSA!


Is this the one at Penn State?
