keith, there you go again. Same old crap. Could you be more specific about what you mean by "fly-tying"? As for the mercury contamination, the owners of the old house would appreciate your taking in a three-headed dog. I am overridden with guilt about the house. My biggest regret is that you didn't buy the house. I would have made you a good deal. Sorry you didn't like the Xmas Greeting. It was only a suggestion.
