If you must know, FLL wants the old man back up in place because he and the old man are one in the same....now that I said that I thought that they were building a fiberglass model of the ole man and were going to put it in place of the old. I alos believe that I made a small contribution to doing just that.

While I think the old man should be rebuilt I also like the Mount Washington (vessel) with the Mt. Washington in the background. I think at least everyone in New England could relate to that, (if not they need to get off the sofa and see New England)

Did you know that Robert B. Woods was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for manning a gun on the USS Mount Washington, I think that was during the civil war.
