Nutmeg, which is our state's oldest VHF NTS net does indeed handle formal
NTS messages... into, out of, and through out the Nutmeg State. There's a
site done by the WMass group I think that explains it well.

I wonder if they're doing Boxboro this fall. That one is usually good
size and close to HRO in NH.

Of course! Lowers the company assets.

 DS>   Glad to contribute to your collection. <G>

I'll let you add it to yours :)

Ahh yes! Have you seen the special he did in Ireland? He made a character
just for them... Baby Shaemus! Hysterical!

ROFL!! I'm sure the ventriloquist laughed as hard as the audience must have.

 DS>   With the zaniness of some of the weather forecast models at times, I

Here... we say if you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes. <G>

.... Never say during sex: get off me, i'll do it myself!!!!
