I'll vouch for the signature. Jonathan wanted to do this as his friendly way to raise money for the Mike Richardson Award. The Mike Richardson Award will be a recognition to an individual in our hobby and will be awarded at Cirque in Greensboro in May. The hope is to make this an annual award. The funds will be used to defray the costs for the award, engraving, etc. No more details on this are available as the seed was just planted a month or so ago by John Barron. But, I thought this was a worthy cause and if we get a little fun out of it along the way, more power to Jonathan for suggesting it. So, bid early and often!! Lou Deeter, Orlando FL
