[QUOTE=Captain Jim;6232218]You can't pin that on Kramster - he was just a kid in 1912.
His third grade teacher related this: "The boy ain't right. He says someday guitars will be made of something besides wood, and he's going to own all of 'em. What an imagination."[/QUOTEA few corrections/additions...If I may and I believe I may... Twas my second third grade teacher (Miss Appletree), first one (Miss Wood) was too upset with my prediction and did not want to change her name to Miss Composite, let alone marry a guy with such a name. "The boy ain't right." Is not quite correct (prolly an early spell check error of yore) ... "The boy is always right and a lefty... oh and very dapper and a fine looking Mensa with tremendous abilities and talent and foresight and...etc...etc..." was actual quote as I remember it. ...

I will, of course, go with your memory, since I wasn't born, yet. Don't be concerned that I had to spend hours looking through archived school reports from that era. Who knew that "Kramster" was a popular name back then, second only to Wilbur? I did find out that Mensa was not founded until 1946, but the word mensa means "table" in Latin... so, your 2nd 3rd grade teacher thought you were a table... well, a fine-looking table. She ain't right, neither.

Yes, same here. But I only check it.... eh, 126 times a day so, let me see.... nope. No change. They are either sitting in a ULD ramp side (checked out packed up) at LHR waiting for a ride, in the air, or sitting ramp side here in the US at a port of entry waiting to get unpacked and checked in.
