[QuadList] SSSM -content preserved--update

[Ted Langdell]

Hi, all...

Thanks for all the interest in preserving this particular collection  
of information.

Overnight, John Buck, Tim Stoffel  and I began some things that and  
we hope will lead to a problem-free restoration of the Museum pages  
Jack Calaway created, with the addition of background on Jack and  
what he did professionally and otherwise.

It may take some time to track down anyone with an interest in Jack's  
estate and make sure there are no issues... so bear with us as we  
find the time necessary to pull things together.  If you live in or  
near Corvallis, Oregon... you could be of great help.

An domain has been secured, and I'll buy a beverage of your choice at  
NAB for the first three people who can figure out what it is. (Reply  
to me off-line, please.)

Meantime, if you have stories about Jack, photos, descriptions or  
material that would be applicable to an on-line Jack Calaway Museum  
in his honor, please keep it safe, and let us know what you have.

Let's see what we can do to keep similar resources from  
disappearing.  You might be surprised what our group can pull off!

Know that this thread has sparked some assistance from some very  
helpful resources, in keeping with the "preservation of the knowledge  
to use them" aspect of the group.

 From a Starbucks in Denver, headed for Colorado Springs, where Quad  
Heads get new life!

(Sounds like the name of an award... The Quad Head Award for......  I  
don't know... suggestions?  What it looks like?  A retired headwheel,  
perhaps?)

*Please highlight the last sentence and change the subject line to  
Quad Head Award if you reply about this idea.

Ted
