Greg,
I could add a lot of other names to the list; people none of you have ever heard of. What is the list for again? If it's everyone who ever worked there the list is quite long. If the list is people who continued in the bike business, it is much shorter. If the list is people who went on to paint bikes or build frames (or did so before and/or after working there, it's shorter yet. If it is people who ended up building frames it's shorter again. If it's people who started at Masi with no previous experience who ended up making frames for a living, it's down to about 3 or 4; one of those being myself. Everyone and each period of time involves people from many different circumstances. The entire "family tree" would be both facinating and mind boggeling.

Glad to see I wasn't on an island with regard to the Masi alumni posts.
I've had several more correspondences off list than on. Thanks to those
who indulged my online conversations last evening. I see lists popping
up here on-list, and wanted to share one that was sort of built in these
off list chats last night. Many thanks to Mssrs Hovey, Moos etc for the
dialogue and names. Here's the latest one that was agreed upon by my bed
time, mostly and originally sent by Bob H.:
Mario Confente Mike Howard Ron Smith Marcel Calbourne Albert Eisentraut Keith Lippy Gian Simonetti Ted Kirkbride Rob Roberson David Moulton Dave Tesch Joe Starck Brian Baylis Jim Cunningham
And a couple 'maybes'
