So my wife has been "retired" since mid march this year. One of her former co-workers used the excuse her math was wrong because she didn't have a left-handed calculator. This is someone I watched say "no, I am not doing that," to her boss. (It was her job.) I grabbed Marshall's hand and said I don't want you to catch stupid. 18 years of loyalty and they did nothing for her. We heard that they hired 2 to replace her and it still isn't enough. My son got his Mom full-time for summer. We can't live like this forever so I am also in the middle of looking for work at least not where she was at...

Every time I see you post, or hear the word "Barb" I think of your Dad and how outgoing he was towards folks, myself incl.
I was at MME 03 in Quebec and w/o a car, so he alllowed me to team up with him for the Rally. Didn't blink..."Sure Mike, c'mon"
He drove "Murph' (I think that was the red Mini's name) most of the rally, but I did get a few miles in behind the wheel.
I never even asked....he just pulled over and told me it was my turn to drive.
Another really great guy.
(where did that car ever end up anyways? I recall it being from Gibraltor or somewhere like and know it was very powerful without a working speedometer. Robin had me "time" stuff on my watch and he read out readings from the Tach. ummm, we didn't finish #1 in the rally but we had fun goll dang it !
I also recall a giant "nut" on the shifter where the knob ought to have been, but I am fuzzy on if that was his car or another.
I saw Robin again at MME 08 in Maine (I think it was) and then only again by email when he was trying to clean out your Grandfather ham radios and give them away to good homes. He musta taken sick at the end of those exchanges as I never heard back after that.
I miss him. I am sure you do too. He was a good one.

It is a bit sad, but "Barb," needs to be used and shown. My Mother Janet wanted to keep it for Marshall, but my father would not have wanted that. It also needs to be someone outside the community so we can welcome them in.
