I don't know if I've seen that picture before, but some of those people look familiar.

That bottom T shirt is Caper's company but the phone number may have changed since 1993.

John,


Caper was the nickname I got from Prodigy. It seems Greg and Joe and I and Ed were talking about wiring up electrical equipment when some homeowner joined in and said that Electrical Contractors believe that they are better than homeowners and that we thought that we belonged to some kind of a "Secret Society". So that was how our "Name" came about. Joe T has the whole original story about how we became a little group on the new fangled thing called "Internet".

Greg,

I still have my old t-shirt from the "Society" (I hate to use the SS abbreviation) I wouldn't want some one to get the wrong idea. Maybe I should post the picture of mine as well. Do you still hear from Wiz or Sheriff?

Wiz and I were talking about using a linear transformer as sensor for a tide monitor about a year ago and he even made a prototype. He was doing well.

Mike, the guy in the middle is Joe T. He was the teacher. Maybe someone should have brought him an apple.

Greg,

I actually got him a "Nail"! Do you remember his nickname? It was THE NAIL. So I was on vacation in Williamsburg Va. and as I was walking around I found an old straight cut nail, from an old historic building. I took the nail, had it mounted on a plaque and the plaque said something like, " To Joe T. THE NAIL. Our teacher and mentor on *P*" or something like that. We presented this to him the day that picture was taken.

Greg,

The # on my old t-shirt still works but it goes to my sons phone. He checks the voice messages maybe once every other week, if even that much.
