Heard yesterday that an aquaintance of mine that graduated the year before me (1965) rolled a tractor day before yesterday. Lost his right arm below the elbow, broke both legs and has several broken ribs as well as a lot of other broken bones and internal injuries and is in intensive care. I haven't heard any other particulars of the accident.

It can and will happen to us older folks that do know everything, but our attention isn't what it used to be and our reflexes just aren't there any more. It can and does for me anyway take just a little more time to catch that clutch or hit that brake. I know he and his family would appreciate your prayers.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
