Low FAC, Henry F.

[Joe & Penny Goss]

Sorry Mister Hunt,
A coons age is about 5 years and refers to a raccoon not  
to a person. At least thats my view. OOps broke my keyboard by pounding too
hard. It galls me sometimes that one can not hardly express in colorful
language an idea without getting in trouble.
To those who have the same view as Newton my humble apologies. 
Joe
