I remember when I first learned of this group
when Spencer was running it out of the Forsythe County
servers.   I think I was running a 286 computer 
with Win. 3.1.  If I remember right it just had a few megabytes
of memory.  About a month ago I upgraded my Android
phone to a model that has 32 gigabytes of memory,  That 
phone cost less money than that old 286 computer by about half
and it was used when I bought it.

Then last week I saw a deal online and ordered it.  It came today
and I just installed it.  A 1.5 TB  Western Digital external hard drive.
It's about as bit as a deck of playing cards and it cost me a whopping
$89 bucks with free shipping.

Meanwhile the price of old tractors continues to go up and new 
tractors have gone out of sight.
