Do you have any idea how few former St. Louis workers/engineers are still alive, much less interested and computer-literate? I think I'm the only one.

I'm making a 3-hour presentation (updated version of the one I gave at the 2011 NCRS National Convention) this weekend on the St. Louis midyear assembly process for the New England NCRS Chapter Speaker's Series - see page 4 and 121 in the September/October "Driveline".
