    Hi. I note that when you go to the VPA site it says that the change should be completed by June 10 and we will then again be able to order online. Is everything on schedule?

    Magazine Received

    The electronic copy was excellent but there is still the pre internet fun of holding the actual magazine and turning the pages. The interview of Dick Winkles was a special treat. Great job!

    It was a strange experience.

    So as I was driving back on the Sawgrass Expressway today I looked down at the steering wheel and said to myself: "What is that button for?" It was the cruise control.
