They'd respond, but the miracle of electricity has yet to reach them.

Other people seem to think so, but in reality, no.

We may be in the center of the US with no oceans but we do have some lakes. I think shipwreck is OK. Maybe our water bodies aren't big enough for ships, but they are big enough for boats. Maybe I should change my name to boatwreck. At least we don't have to worry about Nebraska sliding into the ocean. Dave

No, I don't need contact names - just wondered if any members here were going to be doing those games.

LOL.....I'm not from Nebraska. I am going there for the National games in July and was just curious as to who might be from there.
