The "Jolly Loop" was RE: Andres punchings

[Greg Newell]

Del,
         Thank you VERY much for the reply! I chose not to use his service 
because of his insistence that he would change whatever I had sent him if 
he saw fit. Knowing that he would agree to adhere to the design sent sort 
of changes things now doesn't it? I just may have to give his service a 
try. Not that Mapes has done anything wrong.

Best,
Greg
