If I may take a personal excursus, I must add that being able to witness the scholarship
and erudition of Mike Wheat's work on the T201s as it developed over the weeks and months was a rare treat and privilege for me. Thank you very much,Mike.
Ps
as usual, I always get at least one surprise from the Collector's Dugout.
I never knew that one of our longtime members(in his mid50s,I think) is a dedicated marathoner. Wow!
congrats everyone---10 years OC!!
best,
