742,
Who are you with now? I think you get that enjoyable crew bonding wherever you work. I know what you mean.
Back in the mid 80's I sat in the infamous trailer in SDF and had lots of bonding too. I think it's part of the human condition.

Got the contact info btw, thanks very much. Right now I'm enjoying the time off. My wife not so much, she's ready for me to go back to work.
I guess I'm a former 74plb now....
