[AT] Allis Chalmer B

[charlie hill]

Will, if anyone gets an e-mail response on allischalmers.com I don't know 
anything about it.  You just enter your e-mail address in case someone wants 
to contact you off list.  It does go by fast.  I often have to run a search 
on my log on name to find responses.
