To: a little elbow grease
My words were meant as a compliment as I suppose you knew.

I knew I was a little overly generous with the three times thing. Fact is when I was in Third grade (1946) we were taught the US population was 93 million. I decided to check those old census figures several years back and discovered they were off quite a bit, at least according to the census. We didn't have the internet back then in fact a lot of people where I lived didn't have electric lights, some had gas lights most had kerosene lamps. WW II brought employment but not products, those came later.

LOL .... more clues. I guess you are around 80. I'll call you sir from now on. I'm only 71.

In case you like golf I just found this fine interview of two of the greats before this year's Masters.
