[AT] How had the group changed

[John Hall]

Well I'm in the late 90's group of ATIS members.  Somewhere between 
97-99 we came out of the dark ages and got a computer and internet.

Ok, I'll bite--Farmer, what are these guys talking about regarding 
changing hammer handles? Never thought it was that complicated--maybe 
I'm just lucky? I've got to replace the handle in my favorite big 
hammer, it finally broke after 30+ years. Going to have to scour the net 
to find one--ain't no hardware stores of that type around. This isn't a 
claw or ball pein, its about 2+lbs and one end shaped as a wedge. Done a 
whole lot of fixing farm equipment with this one.
