	Thanks, Larry. I'm glad I asked. The way it comes up in the ATIS
Image Depot makes it easy to find. Makes me wonder if there wouldn't be
some way to attach text files to a photo - ie, your's and Herb's - so
there could be a story attached to a photo.

	Gene remembers details because he has trained himself to do it. When
he flies that Maule, he doesn't have time to stop and read the maps or manuals.
grins.  Or something like that....

	It was 40 degrees here this morning, BTW, and if the colors were any
prettier, we would have to stop traffic entering our area and charge a fee to
go thru. Geez, it must be the late frost gave the trees time to change color
before dropping their leaves.
