Thanks for getting these sites back for us all to use. Very valuable
information.
Never met Jim, but his posts were always on point.
Karl was great. Met him on several occasions. Once at a pick and pull in
Wilmington, CA around 2002 where I found my 71 gas tank for my
splitty.Didn't know he was a gold miner. Now I understand the moniker
Aufever.
As for Rob Laffoon, I met him at the Classic in Irivine. We had lunch
together. Another classic dude!

RIP guys.
