[Cabs-talk] CABS' history

Tue Nov 10 04:59:36 UTC 2009

No, Eddie was not President but Fred Schroeder was.  I was the Treasurer.  I 
will try to put together some kind of a history synopsis.  I like the idea 
of storing historical documents on a flash drive.  I sent all of the CABS 
files to the officers and all that is now lost in the years of changing 
hands.
