Nope. I have no clue what's going on. In all reality it's kinda starting
to P**S me off, I've been waiting for over 3 months for my Apple LISA.

I'm in the same boat. The positive assurances with respect to Jim's
follow-through are great, but life circumstances can change people's
behavior, and I think as a group those of us who are expecting items from
Jim are justified in our discomfort.
If someone knows how to get ahold of him by means other than email, it would
be appreciated. It sounds like he's on his way to seriously damaging his
reputation and heaping all kinds of trouble on top of an already
uncomfortable situation. If something life-threatening has happened, I'm
sure we'll all be willing to give him room, but right now we're just in the
dark.

Didn't he post this information a while back? Have you checked the mailing
list archives? OK, I just tried, let me put it another way, is there a way
to search the archives, and does anyone remember? I'm pretty sure he posted
a phone number for the Bowling Center at some point.
OK, I think this might be current... 620-924-1305 At least it was in
March when he posted it. There is a web page, but when he posted the above
number he noted that the number on the web page
http://www.yatescenterbowl.com/ was no longer valid.
Also it looks like the last post from him was on August 12th. In it he
talks about the current state of his troubles.

I'm in the same boat (sent him money, no response to inquiries for
months), so I talked to the chief of police in Yates Center. He indicates
that the Fredonia address is probably for a farm he rented when he first
moved to KS, but he's since moved into Yates Center.
Jim's financial problems are apparently well known in town (it's a small
town), and the police (there's just one) didn't sound optimistic about our
chances of getting our stuff.
FWIW, I have no interest in pursuing this as a criminal matter, but if
you're out more than $500, that could make it a felony in KS. The chief
offered to ping Jim in person. I'll send an update if I hear anything
back.

According to Mapquest this address is 37 miles from the Yates Center
Bowl address, but it's probably worth a shot.
