Richard Lamb and the Texas Parasol Plans ...and Sirius Aviation

[Richard Lamb]

How-DEE! All'a ya'll pudknockers (and the few prime pilots too :^).

First:
Copping a quote from Twain, "the news of my death has been greatly
exaggerated".

Yes, I had surgery to remove a bladder tumor, but the tumor was not
malignant (and THAT is GOOD news!) No kemo or rads required.

But I have given up smoking (believe it or not) and for good.
Sometimes you just gotta decide what you want most...
Another cigarette, or to go on living a while longer?

And, yes, I've sold the house at Zuehl field. While I'll admit missing
my (1450 sq ft!!) shop, I don't miss the Property Owners Association
problems at all.


Texas Parasol Plans:

Ted (Sirius Aviation) is only two years behind on royalties.
Last time I talked to him he was "going to get caught up real soon
now".
But that isn't going to happen - ever.
Man, I don't know how a person can screw it up so bad and still pretend
to be in business.

Best advice I can offer is not to waste your time or money on Sirius.

But there still are people asking for plans. I know, because I hear
from them when Ted takes their money and won't send what they bought.

So...

I've put the plans for the plane on CD(R) (in PDF format),
along with the old web page (greatly expanded!) and filled
the rest of the disk with all the construction pics and tips
I could fit on it (about 600 MB total content).

The CD is available (from me) for $30.

Just drop a note to me at for details
(or just to say hi? I'd love to hear from old friends.)

Take care,

Richard

Thanks, Patrick.

It's what mammals do (sometimes?)

is the correst address, Neal.
I'm getting outside email, so I think it's working ok.

But looking back up the thread (I'm posting via Google) it looks like
somebody
(googlish) has mangled all the email addresses. (?)

Let me try it this way...
c a v e l a m b (at) y a h o o (dot) c o m

Did that help?

For a few months now, Google _has_ been mangling all addresses,
WHEN READ ON GOOGLE.

messages -sent- via google, when read "somewhere else", do not have the
mangled addresses you see when reading USENET via google.

For a while you could use the 'Display in Original Format' to
see the email addresse,then they began munging that too.

But just in the past two weeks Google has addeda afeature for
de-munging email addesses found in the body of an article.
The elipsis '...' is a link. Clicking on it takes you to
a page where you can view some random text in an image and
type it into a window to demung the email address.

Did Google deliberated do that (to throw off spambots)? I'm impressed!

[Richard Lamb]

Thanks for the info, guys.
I was kinda curious about what was going on there.

Hey, if it reduces the spam trash, I'm all for it!

Sort of.

But not if the author munged his address himself, as many do.
Google does NOT direct bounces to the sender, (at least I never
got one) so youdon;t know if your email got through or not.

Having not received a reply or a bounce from my email to you,
perhaps you could send an email to me, with an address to which
I could send a check and my address for the CD?

Dunno if I'm getting through or not.

Hey Fred,

I got your note on the 6th - came thru 5x5.
And I did reply - same day, in fact.
But I've not seen a reply to that one.

The address I saw is
I assume that is correct....

So I just now shot off another direct email via the google
_reply to author_ thingie on todays message.

See if that comes in, ok?

Hoping for the best,

Richard
