Dean Notarnicola: I pinned a [VCF-E] brochure to the corkboard on Nassau St a few weeks ago. I wonder if that what he saw?

Dean: I stopped doing that. It was eating into my floppy disk fund.

These seem like jokes, fake history. But in fact, when I was at the Dayton Hamfest one year in the 1990's, an airplane flew over the event and dropped flyers - with real $1 bills attached! I saw the airplane, saw the drop, grabbed a few flyers; so there's no doubt. Of course, people forget that "catching eyeballs" is a source of income on the Web. Google reported billions of dollars just today, income from selling ads and Web-search placements. So: money gets spent on advertizing; and location matters. Herb -- Herbert R.
