Mr. Estes Comes to Washington.

I found this by accident. Don't know if anyone here has ever read this.

Anyway, I thought it was cool! And now you have his home address to send him cards and letters.

Here are a few more articles.

Your Welcome!

I posted this in FreeForAll forum so everyone could see it. But magically, it jumped over here and about halfway down the list so only you and I know it's here!

Isn't that something?

Everyone has access to this message area. No one will find this message of yours any harder or any easier than if it was in FreeForAll. I moved it here due to this being a more proper forum for it since it deals with the history of model rocketry.

I knew that Scott. Thank you for re-posting it.

It would be nice to let it sit there for a few days and let it fester, followed by a nice note from yours truly saying,

"This post is better suited in another forum. Please follow this link to read the other post on this subject."

But this is your forum and you can do what you want,

Just say'in!
