Thanks for posting; that was a lot of effort and I appreciate it. Congratulations to Phil on an impressive and obviously successful event.

I love the old nicknames: we had "Mouse", "Radar", "Banana" and every area had at least one "Red", "Arkie", "Tex" or "Preacher".
Makes for some awkward conversations, though, sometimes. Someone will say "...did you hear Harold So-and-so passed away".
Me, thinking...."I don't think I knew a Harold So-and-so..."
Them: "Sure you did, he worked back in repair for 40 years".
Me: "hmmm"
Them: "You know...'Ratman'".
Me, gasping: "RATMAN?! RATMAN PASSED AWAY?! DAMMIT!! I DIDN"T EVEN KNOW HE WAS SICK!!"
