G'day Bob,

Replying to a message of Bob Lawrence to Bill Grimsley on 27-05-96:

 BL>   When I was a kid it never occurred to me that I might have to grow
 BL> up. It came as a terrible shock at 16, when I was about to be thrown
 BL> out of shcool and they wanted to know what I wanted to be. I was
 BL> happy being what I was. I became a Radio Engineer because I'd made a
 BL> crystal set. It was dead lucky I didn't know how to knit.

ROTFL. I felt the same when they wanted to chuck me out of school at 17
after the HSC. I hadn't done anything as useful as building a crystal set
so I became a Public Servant.

Regards...Jeff (jeff{at}grntrs.dialix.oz.au)
