John has been on with a different username, gave up on the old one. I don't remember what it is but does have John in it. Time gets away from me but I think it was about a month ago talking of cold and snow, I think.

Bob La. used to be prolific in the politics section, have seen anything from him in quite a spell.
I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

Ya, i missed him before Thanksgiving and PM'd him. Never got a reply.

Ken in Texas was Ken Aggen.  He was battling cancer, but it had gone into remission.  I hope it didn't come back on him.

I am sorry to hear of Ken's passing.  He sent me quite a few pieces for my Allis C.  Wouldn't take any $$.  He just wanted to keep Allis alive.

How about olivetroad?  or firecowallis?

If you click on MEMBERSLIST at the top right of this page, you can see all the MEMBERS.... By scanning thru them i would say that 9 out of 10 guys that signed up as Members over the years are NO LONGER  posting.( more like 48 out of 50) ??.... im sure some just were not interested, and probably some have passed on.

HOME PAGE lists 25,000 Members... I would bet there are only 2-300 that continue to come back and READ the posts... and most of them do not actually POST much.

So sorry to hear of Ken's passing. Met him at one of Dale Haymakers shows . He had brought some Black Diamond watermelons for the show . Ate a couple pieces and shot the $#!+ for a while. RIP Ken's.

And like Den said Auntwayne and I will be at the Missouri swap meet next week.
Glad to hear John is still lurking around.
Bob from LA has me worried.

Hey guys! I’m still kicking. I still get on here and check things out every couple days. I just don’t post very often anymore. Seems life has gotten busier. I still mess around with my Allis stuff now and then. Hope everyone is doing well!
