So was the wabbit ever cooked?

W3DUQ knows his cousin and checks once in a while on him through the cousin.
Last word about two months back was he is still in the nut house trying to
get things straightened out so he can go back home. The cousin has the wabbit
with no plans for a winter dinner of you know what!
Terry, took you long enough to pick-up on this!
Getting a bit slow there in your dotage, Capt Marvelous...
Oh and the reason for the vanity call issue... The current call is actually his original
call. He let it expire a few years back and was issued a new call but he wanted the
old one back, hence; vanity issue.

Another pearl of wisdom from this award-winning engineer, as he wiped out the whole AM window with splatter:
"Those transmitters have crystals and filters and things in them. You have to know what you're doing!"
