I think I remember meeting you at a Battle Park, VA launch (1991?) when Tim Eisner and John Cato (maybe Tom Binford, as well) tracked me down (saw the Georgia plate on my car). Started my journey in HP.


I think it was probably when you started coming down to the grass farm outside Douglas/Nicholls for some of our HotShot launches we used to have from about 1990 through the latter 90s. I think that is when we first met, but I do recall when the others you mentioned went to the Battle Park launch. I recall I had some other commitment that weekend and could not make it up.

Do you still have a copy of your BG design?
