How many of you (with good intentions, like myself) forgot to react to
Mark's low key request for some assistance?  I just remembered and wrote
a check.  Sure would like to see the list continue and prosper.

The address is:

        Fat Chance Garage
        PO Box 58333
        Salt Lake City, UT  84158
