<DIV>I met Steve several years ago at a contest in West Virginia. Once you meet him, you will never forget him. And it would be a darn good bet that he won't forget you either! Bill, I will introduce you to him if we are all together at the same time, but as Mr. Atwood states, his infectious laugh will precede him.</DIV>
