Bill,

------A friend and I were just talking about Kruses lack of interest in this auction. It occured to us that maybe they didnt want to suck any bidders away from Auburn the week before. It is also possible that the dealers (absolutely posatively necessary for a successful auction) had simply had enough after the Auburn mayhem and went home to get some rest. From thier angle they felt as if they had to go to Auburn which is a known entity, but would pass on R/W simply because enough is enough. Just a thought..........Bill S
