Helen:

Pete said the above just before The Who started playing in Mansfield 
(second show)
on September 27.   I have the official CD release.

Joseph Townshend is Pete's son.   A good looking boy
and a great name to boot!

You are also correct and direct (only one degree there).
How's it going Greg?   Did you get both the Camden and
the Hershey shows?    How are your wife, that lovely daughter
of yours and that son-in-law that kept getting lost doing?

Helen the White:

After reading the entire digest I can't help but think that
either: 1. you've been away for a while, 2. your computer was
down, or 3. you've been too busy to respond to posts
from over six weeks ago.    I'm guessing it's #1.
