Okay, at the risk of asking people to give up their secrets...
I just found out that we've got to fly down to Ft. Lauderdale, FL
for a couple of days. Any interesting spots there for classic
pickings?

There are TONS of good trift stores in the area. You should have some good
pickings. I know where there are some good places around Melbourne if you
get that far north.

New subject: Altair Image Wanted
Does somebody have a nice clear image of a badly beaten Altair they could
send me? The more beaten up, the better, but it still has to be
recognizable as an Altair.
Thanks,
Doug

Now *here's* something I can help you with, Doug.
For the Very Reasonable Price of $10,000.00(US) I will take my
specimen out in the driveway and beat it into bits and flinders with
a sledgehammer, while recording the event on various video and still
cameras... then I will ship you the film *and* the residue via
FedEx.... and I'll pay the shipping!!
No e-bay involvement will be necessary, Thank God.
Cheers
John
PS: Let me know ASAP, while there is still time to book New Year's
in Hawaii this year....

Your offer is very tempting, John, but for $10K, you should at least offer
to let me swing the sledgehammer. :-)
Could you be persuaded to do it for the sake of Art? I'd offer to throw
in an original Microsoft mouse if you'd like to make the ultimate
Microsoft bashing statement....

It was thus said that the Great John Ruschmeyer once
stated:
Forget Orlando. I live there and the pickings are poor. Melbourne, Cocoa
and KSC area are much better. There's a lot of hamfests coming up. Let me
know when you'll be here and I'll tell you if there's any at that time.
What kind of stuff are you looking for?

As possibly the only one near the Ft. Lauderdale area (next closest on
this list is in Orlando I think) I don't think I'll be giving up much that
is secret down here---I don't know.
