[vcf-midatlantic] Vintage stuff I should get rid of

[William Dudley]

The results are in:

Kyle Owen was first to ask for the 1702's, Systems Glitch is also
interested.  Perhaps you two can decide if you want to share, otherwise
Kyle gets 'em.

The Z19 is going to the museum.

Matt Patoray is getting the 8514.

Kyle Owen is getting the books.

I'll bring it all to VCF East unless any of you want to make other
arrangements.  I'm in Jackson, NJ.
