Galoots,

  Although I'm not a serious contributor to the list I always 
appreciated what Jim had to say.  A while back I bought some of his 
carving tools because my wife was getting into woodblock printing. One 
of the tools rolled under his bench and he missed it when he was packing 
and mailing them out.  When I asked about it, he apologized, scoured the 
shop and sent it along.  He also sent a carbide burnisher that he had 
made as a consolation prize.  I missed this news over the weekend with 
work, so tonight I raise a glass in remembrance. Cheers Jim!
