Okay, well when I was in grade school, I lived in St. Louis, lived there for a long time, but they were building the St. Louis Arch and they had a few problems with that. It went up about a quarter of the way. They had to tear it back down, put in some more reinforcements, I think, or something, so they started going back up. They got up about halfway. They realized that by the time it got up to the top, the two legs of the arch would have been too far apart to put in the last piece, so they had to tear it back down and go back up. They also had a problem when they started doing the top part of the arch, people falling off the arch to their death, so they had to put a net up across the two legs of the arch. Then the last piece of the arch, they still had a little problem getting that in because it was like a tiny bit off, but they did manage to get that in. The other thing, I don't know if I want to say this, but I'll say that I am distantly related to a famous person in history, but I'm not going to say who that is. W0GL, back to net. This is repeater station Kilo Kilo 7. All right, W0GL, related to someone. Well, interesting story about St. Louis Arch. That's great. Bill, let's go over to you.
