[FWDLK] FW: Re: [FWDLK] Old Gas

[ted dudley <moparp2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dave,  I'm not sure who "Fern" is, but his comments are enough for me to
request that my name be removed from the list server.  I will not be called

other well being.  Let Fern go start a fire with GAS, but remove me from
the list.  Ted Dudley
